NAME

unwrapdiff − demangle word-wrapped patches

SYNOPSIS

unwrapdiff [−v] [file...]

unwrapdiff {−−help | −−version}

DESCRIPTION

unwrapdiff demangles patches that have been word−wrapped, in an attempt to make them useful.

The corrected diff is sent to standard output. Note that you will probably need to use the −l option when applying the patch, in order to ignore any whitespace differences there may be.

OPTIONS

−v

Verbose operation. A list of lines that are modified in a way that might be wrong is sent to stderr.

−−help

Display a short usage message.

−−version

Display the version number of unwrapdiff.

LIMITATIONS

Some heuristics are used to decide whether use a space to recombine a wrapped line, or just join them together. Currently this is done by comparing with last three characters of a line with the first two characters of its continuation, and using a space of any of them are different.

The patch needs to have been valid before being word−wrapped.

The last line of a hunk is nearly always ambiguous. If the next line begins ’’@@’’, ’’Index: ’’, ’’diff ’’ or ’’−−− ’’ then it is taken to be complete; otherwise it is unwrapped using the next line.
