patchutils 0.3.1 (Stable branch)

Patchutils contains a collection of tools formanipulating patch files: interdiff, combinediff,flipdiff, filterdiff, fixcvsdiff, rediff, lsdiff, grepdiff,splitdiff, recountdiff, and unwrapdiff. You canuse interdiff to create an incremental patchbetween two patches that are against a commonsource tree, combinediff for creating acumulative diff from two incremental patches, andflipdiff to transpose two incremental patches.Filterdiff is for extracting or excluding patchesfrom a patch set based on modified files matchingshell wildcards. Lsdiff lists modified files in apatch. Rediff, recountdiff, and unwrapdiff correcthand-edited (or otherwise broken) patches.License: GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:
The TMPDIR environment variable is now respected. A rediff assertion failure has been fixed. The editdiff program now retains marker comments. GNU-style long names are now available for most options.Image

NAME
splitdiff - separate out incremental patches SYNOPSIS
splitdiff [-a] [-d] [-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. OPTIONS
-a Split out every single file-level patch. -d Create file names such as a_b.c for a patch that modifies a/b.c. -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. SEE ALSO
