Patchutils is a small collection of programs that operate on patch files:
|
|
|
|
|
|
* interdiff generates an incremental patch from two patches against a common source
|
|
|
|
|
|
* combinediff generates a single patch from two incremental patches, allowing you to merge patches together
|
|
|
|
|
|
* filterdiff will select the portions of a patch file that apply to files matching (or, alternatively, not matching) a shell wildcard
|
|
|
|
|
|
* fixcvsdiff corrects the output of ‘cvs diff’
|
|
|
|
|
|
* rediff corrects hand-edited patches, by comparing the original patch with the modified one and adjusting the offsets and counts
|
|
|
|
|
|
* lsdiff displays a short listing of affected files in a patch file, along with (optionally) the line numbers of the start of each patch
|
|
|
|
|
|
* splitdiff separates out patches from a patch file so that each new patch file only alters any given file once
|
|
|
|
|
|
* grepdiff displays a list of the files modified by a patch where the patch contains a given regular expression
|
|
|
|
|
|
* recountdiff fixes up counts and offsets in a unified diff
|
|
|
|
|
|
* unwrapdiff fixes word-wrapped unified diffs.
