.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility compares the contents of three different versions of a file,
|
|
.Ar file1 ,
|
|
.Ar file2
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar file3 ,
|
|
writing the result to the standard output.
|
|
The options describe different methods of merging and
|
|
purging
|
|
the separate versions into a new file.
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is used by
|
|
.Xr rcs 1
|
|
to merge specific versions or create
|
|
new versions.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "-E, -X"
|
|
.It Fl 3 , Fl Fl easy-only
|
|
Produces an output script suitable for
|
|
.Xr ed 1
|
|
with changes
|
|
specific only to
|
|
.Ar file3 .
|
|
.It Fl A Fl Fl show-all
|
|
Output all changes, bracketing conflicts.
|
|
.It Fl a , Fl Fl text
|
|
Treat all files as ASCII.
|
|
.It Fl E , Fl Fl show-overlap
|
|
.It Fl X
|
|
Similar to
|
|
.Fl e
|
|
and
|
|
.Fl x ,
|
|
respectively, but treat overlapping changes (i.e., changes that would
|
|
be noted with ==== in the normal listing) differently.
|
|
The overlapping lines from both files will be inserted by the edit script,
|
|
bracketed by "<<<<<<" and ">>>>>>" lines.
|
|
.It Fl e , Fl Fl ed
|
|
Produces output in a form suitable as an input script for the
|
|
.Xr ed 1
|
|
utility.
|
|
The script may then be used to merge differences common between all
|
|
three files and differences specific to
|
|
.Ar file1
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar file3 .
|
|
In other words, the
|
|
.Fl e
|
|
option ignores differences specific to
|
|
.Ar file1
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar file2 ,
|
|
and those specific to
|
|
.Ar file2
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar file3 .
|
|
It is useful for backing out changes specific to
|
|
.Ar file2
|
|
only.
|
|
.It Fl Fl help
|
|
Prints usage information and exits.
|
|
.It Fl i
|
|
Appends 'w' and 'q'
|
|
.Xr ed 1
|
|
commands.
|
|
.It Fl L , Fl Fl label
|
|
Defines labels to print instead of file names
|
|
.Ar file1 ,
|
|
.Ar file2
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar file3 .
|
|
.It Fl m, Fl Fl merge
|
|
Merge output instead of generating ed script.
|
|
.It Fl T, Fl Fl initial-tab
|
|
In the normal listing,
|
|
use a tab instead of two spaces
|
|
at the beginning of each line.
|
|
In modes that produce an
|
|
.Xr ed 1
|
|
script, this option changes nothing.
|
|
.It Fl x, Fl Fl overlap-only
|
|
Produces an output script suitable for
|
|
.Xr ed 1
|
|
with changes
|
|
specific only to all three versions.
|
|
.It Fl Fl diff-program Ar program
|
|
Use
|
|
.Ar program
|
|
instead of the default
|
|
.Xr diff 1
|
|
to compare files.
|
|
.It Fl Fl strip-trailing-cr
|
|
Strip trailing carriage return on input files.
|
|
.It Fl Fl version
|
|
Prints version information and exits.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl E
|
|
option is used by
|
|
.Tn RCS
|
|
.Xr merge 1
|
|
to ensure that overlapping changes in the merged files are preserved
|
|
and brought to someone's attention.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example, suppose lines 7-8 are changed in both
|
|
.Ar file1
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar file2 .
|
|
Applying the edit script generated by the command
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl $ diff3 -E file1 file2 file3
|
|
.Pp
|
|
to
|
|
.Ar file1
|
|
results in the file:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
lines 1-6
|
|
of file1
|
|
<<<<<<< file1
|
|
lines 7-8
|
|
of file1
|
|
=======
|
|
lines 7-8
|
|
of file3
|
|
>>>>>>> file3
|
|
rest of file1
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The default output of
|
|
.Nm
|
|
makes notation of the differences between all files, and those
|
|
differences specific to each pair of files.
|
|
The changes are described by the commands necessary for
|
|
.Xr ed 1
|
|
to create the desired target from the different versions.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr diff 1
|
|
for a description of the commands.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "====="
|
|
.It Li \&====
|
|
The lines beneath this notation are ranges of lines which are different
|
|
between all files.
|
|
.It \&==== Ns Va n
|
|
The lines beneath this notation are ranges of lines which are exclusively
|
|
different in file
|
|
.Va n .

.Sh BUGS
|
|
The

|
.Fl e
|
|
option cannot catch and change lines which have
|
|
.Ql \&.
|
|
as the first and only character on the line.
|
|
The resulting script will fail on that line
|
|
as
|
|
.Ql \&.
|
|
is an

|
editing command.
