PROGRAM:

NAME


rdiffdir - compute and apply signatures and diffs to directories

SYNOPSIS


rdiffdir [options] sig[nature] basis_dir signature_file

rdiffdir [options] delta full_sigtar {incr_sigtar} new_dir delta_file

rdiffdir [options] patch basis_dir delta_file

rdiffdir [options] tar basis_dir tar_file

If signature_file or delta_file are "-", the data will be read from stdin or written to
stdout as appropriate.

DESCRIPTION


rdiffdir is supposed to be like rdiff, but can operate on directories. See rdiff(1) for
more information. The syntax is similar.

Regarding the delta command, the full_sigtar operand is a signature_file written by an
earlier signature or tar command (the latter using the --write-sig-to option). The
optional incr_sigtar operands are signature files written by earlier delta commands using
the --write-sig-to option. This way the Nth invocation of the delta command can parse (and
extend) the signature chain that has been founded by the first signature or tar command
with a full signature, and then extended by the subsequent N-1 delta invocations with
incremental signatures. It is the responsibility of the user to specify the sigtar
operands in logical increment order.

OPTIONS


--write-sig-to sigfile
This option is only used in delta and tar modes. When specified, rdiffdir will
write a signature of the directory it is processing to sigfile. The end result
will be a delta and a new signature calculated over the same data.

-z, --gzip-compress
Enable gzip compression and decompression of signature and delta files.

SELECTION OPTIONS


In signature and delta modes, rdiffdir accepts duplicity-like selection options including
--exclude, --exclude-filelist, etc. See the duplicity(1) manual page for more
information.
