SPLITDIFF(1) Man pages SPLITDIFF(1) NAME splitdiff - separate out incremental patches SYNOPSIS splitdiff [-a] [-d] [-D dir] [-p n] [-E] [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.patch for a patch that modifies a/b.c. -D dir Write output files into subdirectory dir. Implies -d. -p n Strip the first n components of the pathname to aid comparisons. -E Don't use .patch filename extension when writing output files. --help Display a short usage message. --version Display the version number of splitdiff.
