SPLITDIFF(1)SPLITDIFF(1)NAME
splitdiff - separate out incremental patches
SYNOPSIS
splitdiff [-p n] [file]
splitdiff {--help | --version}
DESCRIPTION
If you have a patch file composed of several incremental patches, you can use splitdiff to separate them out. You may want to do this in
preparation for re-combining them with combinediff(1).
The effect of running splitdiff is to separate its input into a set of output files, with no output file patching the same file more than
once.
It is not intended to split out every single file-level patch. For that, use lsdiff and sed.
OPTIONS -p n Strip the first n components of the pathname to aid comparisons.
--help Display a short usage message.
--version
Display the version number of splitdiff.

COMBINEDIFF(1)COMBINEDIFF(1)NAME
combinediff - create a cumulative unified patch from two incremental patches
SYNOPSIS
combinediff [-p n] [-U n] [-d PAT] [-Bbiqwz]
[--interpolate | --combine] diff1 diff2
combinediff {--help | --version}
DESCRIPTION
combinediff creates a unified diff that expresses the sum of two diffs. The diff files must be listed in the order that they are to be
applied. For best results, the diffs must have at least three lines of context.
The diffs may be in context format. The output, however, will be in unified format.
OPTIONS -p n When comparing filenames, ignore the first n pathname components from both patches. (This is similar to the -p option to GNU
patch(1).)
-q Quieter output. Don't emit rationale lines at the beginning of each patch.
-U n Attempt to display n lines of context (requires at least n lines of context in both input files). (This is similar to the -U option
to GNU diff(1).)
-d pattern
Don't display any context on files that match the shell wildcard pattern. This option can be given multiple times.
Note that the interpretation of the shell wildcard pattern does not count slash characters or periods as special (in other words, no
flags are given to fnmatch). This is so that ``*/basename''-type patterns can be given without limiting the number of pathname com-
ponents.
-i Consider upper- and lower-case to be the same.
-w Ignore whitespace changes in patches.
-b Ignore changes in the amount of whitespace.
-B Ignore changes whose lines are all blank.
-z Decompress files with extensions .gz and .bz2.
--interpolate
Run as ``interdiff''. See combinediff(1) for more information about how the behaviour is altered in this mode.
--combine
Run as ``combinediff''. This is the default.
--help Display a short usage message.
--version
Display the version number of combinediff.
BUGS
The -U option is a bit erratic: it can control the amount of context displayed for files that are modified in both patches, but not for
files that only appear in one patch (which appear with the same amount of context in the output as in the input).

Hi,
What is installation package and how to create it?
When we run:
in AIX:
installp package1
or
in Linux
rpm -ivh mypackage
What is package1 or mypackage in the abov examples and how to create them and deploy them?
I hope my question is clear enough.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

After the success of the jq - tool for parsing and manipulating JSON-Data someone wrote a tool called yq, which aims to be the same for YAML, what jq is for JSON. Seems to work fine. I'll definitely give it a chance in future.
