splitdiff - Unix, Linux Command

NAME

splitdiff - separate out incremental patches

SYNOPSIS

Tag	Description
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

Tag	Description
-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.
