Does anyone have an idea on how to diff 2 C code files to an output file of the diffs.
Then use the diffs output file to reconstitute the original C code file from that diff output.
Yes this is something that would benefit me from something I am working on.
Hi.
Welcome to the forum.
See man patch:
NAME
patch - apply a diff file to an original
SYNOPSIS
patch [options] [originalfile [patchfile]]
but usually just
patch -pnum <patchfile
DESCRIPTION
patch takes a patch file patchfile containing a difference listing
produced by the diff program and applies those differences to one or
more original files, producing patched versions.
