|
The patch program applies diff files to originals.
|
|
|
|
|
The diff command is used to compare an original to a changed file.
|
|
|
|
|
Diff lists the changes made to the file.
|
|
|
|
|
A person who has the original file can then use the patch command with the diff file to add the changes to their original file (patching the file).
