QIDIFF(1)              DragonFly General Commands Manual             QIDIFF(1)

NAME

qidiff - show the differences since the last quilt refresh

SYNOPSIS

qidiff

DESCRIPTION

The qidiff utility shows the differences between the current state of the tree and the last refreshed quilt(1) patch. It runs "quilt diff" and passes it through interdiff(1) to show the changes since the last refreshing. To obtain the location where quilt(1) stores its patches, the qidiff utility performs the following tests: * if the QUILT_PATCHES environment variable is set, its value is used. * if the .quiltrc file is present in the user's home directory, it is sourced in a subshell and the value of the QUILT_PATCHES environment variable is used, if defined. * otherwise, patches is used as the name of the quilt(1) patch directory.

RETURN VALUES

The qidiff utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

ENVIRONMENT

QUILT_PATCHES The directory where quilt(1) stores its patches.

FILES

$HOME/.quiltrc The file sourced (if available) if the QUILT_PATCHES environment variable is not set.

EXAMPLES
