The remaining +diffs are written to standard out. \fBdifffilter\fP is a traditional unix filter, +reading input from standard input and writing the results to standard +output. +.PP +If \fBdifffilter\fP encounters a parsing or input reading error, it will exit +after writing an error message to standard output. In such a case, +\fBdifffilter\fP's return value is non-zero. As the parser is not guaranteed to +be perfect and badly-formatted input may be accepted by commands like +\fBpatch\fP(1), it is advised that scripts use error checking on \fBdifffilter\fP. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.B +\fB-h\fP +Displays some amount of helpful or unhelpful information which is intended +to be helpful. \fBdifffilter\fP will exit without performing any filtering. +.TP +.B +\fB-v\fP +Displays \fBdifffilter\fP's version information. +.TP +.B +\fB-e\fP BRE +A POSIX Basic Regular Expression which a filename in the input +diff may be matched against. The default action for a matched regex +is to exclude that portion of the diff from the output. +.TP +.B +\fB-E\fP ERE +Like \fB-e\fP but uses a POSIX Extended Regular Expression. +.TP +.B +\fB-a\fP +Any following \fB-e\fP options will cause files which match the regex to +be included in the output diff. This allows one to preserve selected files +which later patterns will exclude. See EXAMPLE for an application. +.TP +.B +\fB-x\fP +Any following \fB-e\fP options will cause files matching the regex to be excluded +from the output diff. This is the default state of difffilter. I.e., +$ \fBdifffilter\fP \fB-e\fP 'configure$' +has the same functionality of +$ \fBdifffilter\fP \fB-x\fP \fB-e\fP 'configure$' . +.TP +.B +\fB-b\fP +Attempt to make the patch appear as if it were generated using \fBdiff\fP(1)'s \fB-b\fP +option. This is similar to \fB-w\fP but only removes changes involving changes +in the amount of whitespace. This means that completely removing a block of +whitespace or inserting whitespace between two non-whitespace characters +will still be seen as a change. See \fBdiff\fP(1) for more details. +.TP +.B +\fB-k\fP BRE +A POSIX Basic Regular Expression which will be matched against +the name of a CVS keyword whose effect is to be nullified. For example, if +the CVS keyword looks like $Pizza: I'm hungry$, a regex of `hungry' would +not match but a regex of `Pi.*a$' would. +.TP +.B +\fB-K\fP ERE +Like \fB-k\fP but uses a POSIX Extended Regular Expression. +.TP +.B +\fB-R\fP +Reverse the patch. This is intended to recover from accidents when the +sources used to generate a diff are not available but the reverse diff +is. +.TP +.B +\fB-U\fP lines +Reduce the number of lines of context of the diff to the specified +number of lines. Specify \fB-1\fP or a high number to avoid reducing the number +of lines of context. This is set to \fB-1\fP by default. You should set it to 3 in +most cases so that the effects of \fB-k\fP, \fB-b\fP, \fB-w\fP, and other flags can be more useful. +.TP +.B +\fB-w\fP +Attempt to make the patch as if it had been created by \fBdiff\fP(1) with the +\fB-w\fP option. This removes changes from the input diff for which only whitespace +was added or removed. +.SH EXAMPLES +This command should be adequate to filter out many auto-generated +files that don't belong in a Version Control System. This will +filter out files like config.log, config.status, Makefile, and +Makefile.in. It preserves Makefile.am and sourcecode files. Not that +\fB-E\fP is used instead of \fB-e\fP because the command utilizes Extended +Regular Expressions. +.PP +.nf +.fam C + $ difffilter -E '(^|/)config\.(log|status|guess|rpath|sub)$' -E '(^|/)(install-sh|configure|ac(include|local)\.m4|ltmain\.sh|lt[^/]*\.m4)$' -a -E '(^|/)Makefile\.am$' -x -E '(^|/)Makefile' < dirty.patch > clean.patch + +.fam T +.fi +If a dirty patch is submitted to a bugtracker with random whitespace +changes which should be ignored, the patch may be feed through +\fBdifffilter\fP with the \fB-b\fP or \fB-w\fP options. For most cases, \fB-b\fP is more +reasonable -- and is definitely safer than \fB-w\fP. See the CVS keyword +removal example for information on how \fB-U\fP might apply to this +situation. +.PP +.nf +.fam C + $ difffilter -w < bug-34567-dirty.patch > bug-34567-clean.patch + +.fam T +.fi +If you want to see only changes made to a particular file in a +multifile patch, such as README.txt, you may use the \fB-a\fP and \fB-x\fP flags +to effectively invert the normal filtering convention. Any files +which match expressions following an \fB-a\fP will be accepted if that +rule is processed. To revert \fBdifffilter\fP back to its normal mode of +treating expressions as files to discard, use \fB-x\fP. We use an empty +regular expression after the \fB-x\fP because the empty regular expression +matches everything and we want to discard everything but +README.txt. One can also easily modify this example to extract all +changes to \.c$ or \.h$ files. +.PP +.nf +.fam C + $ difffilter -a -e 'README\.txt$' -x -e '' < changes-bigpatch.patch > README.txt-changes.patch + +.fam T +.fi +To nullify diff lines which are caused by changes in CVS keywords' +content, use the \fB-k\fP and \fB-K\fP options. For example, a diff might catch +changes in an $Id: $ line, which is likely to happen when creating +diffs from tarballs, where CVS control files are not available. If +the $Id: $ line has change in the diff meaning that there are two +versions of the $Id: $, the user is likely going to be applying the +diff to the same file which would have a third value for the $Id: $ +line. Thus, applying such a patch would be troublesome (depending on +the method of applying it). With \fB-k\fP and \fB-K\fP, we can get +.PP +.nf +.fam C + $ difffilter -k Id < not-from-cvs.patch > not-from-cvs-fixed.patch + + - /* $Id: binki /var/test/etc/rc.conf.RCS 1.1$ */ + + /* $Id: mgorny /var/test/etc/rc.conf.RCS 2.1.5.3$ */ + +.fam T +.fi +to be nullified. This means that we end up getting rid of the '+' +and '-' lines and end up with a ' ' line: +.PP +.nf +.fam C + /* $Id: binki /var/test/etc/rc.conf.RCS 1.1$ */ + +.fam T +.fi +To most effectively avoid such problems, the change should be first +nullified with \fB-k\fP or \fB-K\fP. Then the \fB-U\fP option should be used. The \fB-U\fP +option is used to reduce the number of lines of context a diff may +have. It would be customary to pass the value 3 to this option. If a +certain block or a portion of the diff has a series of 3 or more +null or noop lines, then \fBdifffilter\fP starts removing these. If a +whole block (or chunk, as \fBpatch\fP(1) calls it) contains no changes, +then \fBdifffilter\fP will completely drop that block from the diff. In +many cases, this may completely remove the block, especially when +(as is often the case) the CVS keyword being nullified is a line in +the header comments of a file where actual edits occur infrequently. +.PP +.nf +.fam C + $ difffilter -k Id -U 3 < not-from-cvs.patch > not-from-cvs-fixed.patch + +.fam T +.fi +.SH SEE ALSO +\fBcolordiff\fP(1), \fBdiff\fP(1), \fBpatch\fP(1), \fBhg\fP(1) +.SH BUGS +There are no known bugs. +.PP +There is a bug tracker at http://ohnopub.net/bugzilla/ . +.SH AUTHOR +Nathan Phillip Brink (binki) <ohnobinki@ohnopublishing.net> diff --git a/dev-util/difffilter/metadata.xml b/dev-util/difffilter/metadata.xml index 097975e3adc2..fed47a353275 100644 --- a/dev-util/difffilter/metadata.xml +++ b/dev-util/difffilter/metadata.xml @@ -1,4 +1,7 @@ <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE pkgmetadata SYSTEM "http://www.gentoo.org/dtd/metadata.dtd"> <pkgmetadata> +<maintainer type='person'> +<email>jer@gentoo.org</email> +</maintainer> </pkgmetadata> |
