PROGRAM:
NAME
zupdate - recompress bzip2, gzip, xz files to lzip files
SYNOPSIS
zupdate [options] [files]
DESCRIPTION
Zupdate recompresses files from bzip2, gzip, and xz formats to lzip format. The originals
are compared with the new files and then deleted. Only regular files with standard file
name extensions are recompressed, other files are ignored. Compressed files are
decompressed and then recompressed on the fly; no temporary files are created. The lzip
format is chosen as destination because it is by far the most appropriate for long-term
data archiving.
If the lzip compressed version of a file already exists, the file is skipped unless the
'--force' option is given. In this case, if the comparison with the existing lzip version
fails, an error is returned and the original file is not deleted. The operation of zupdate
is meant to be safe and not produce any data loss. Therefore, existing lzip compressed
files are never overwritten nor deleted.
Exit status is 0 if all the compressed files were successfully recompressed (if needed),
compared and deleted (if requested). Non-zero otherwise.
