NAME

6       splitdiff - separate out incremental patches
7

SYNOPSIS

9       splitdiff [-a] [-d] [-p n] [-E] [file]
10
11       splitdiff {[--help] | [--version]}
12

DESCRIPTION

14       If you have a patch file composed of several incremental patches, you
15       can use splitdiff to separate them out. You may want to do this in
16       preparation for re-combining them with combinediff(1).
17
18       The effect of running splitdiff is to separate its input into a set of
19       output files, with no output file patching the same file more than
20       once.
