PROGRAM:
NAME
splitpatch - split a patch up into files or hunks
SYNOPSIS
splitpatch [options]
DESCRIPTION
Divide a patch or diff file into pieces. The split can made by file or by hunk basis. This
makes is possible to separate changes that might not be desirable, or assemble a patch
into more coherent set of changes.
The hunk option makes it possible to compare similar patches on a hunk-by-hunk basis using
a tool like interdiff(1) from the patchutils package.
OPTIONS
-H, --hunk, --hunks
Split patch by hunks instead of the default: by file.
-h, --help
Display help and exit
-V, --version
Output version information and exit.
EXAMPLES
Have you ever been working on code, gone off on a side tangent and then realized you don't
have a patch for the original issue you set out to address? When you run "diff -u" or
some other diff command, you discover that you have made multiple sets of changes; some
you want to submit, others you don't. What you really want to do is break those changes
apart and apply only the ones you want. This is where splitpatch comes into play, breaking
up the patch by source file:
splitpatch changes.patch
Or to split the patch file into individual hunks which can later be applied using the
patch(1) command:
splitpatch --hunks changes.patch
ENVIRONMENT
None.
