DESCRIPTION

10     zipmerge merges the source zip archives source-zip into the target zip
11     archive target-zip.  By default, files in the source zip archives over‐
12     write existing files of the same name in the target zip archive.
13
14     Supported options:
15
16     -D   Ignore directory components in file name comparisons.  This option
17          is slow for archives with many files.

22          chives with many files.
23
24     -i   Ask before overwriting files.  See also -s.
25
26     -k   Do not compress files that were uncompressed in source-zip, other‐
27          wise they are compressed with the default compression method.
28
29     -S   Do not overwrite files that have the same size and CRC32 in both the
30          source and target archives.
31
32     -s   When -i is given, do not ask before overwriting files that have the
33          same size and CRC32.

CAVEATS

50     zipmerge uses one open file descriptor per zip archive.  If you need to
51     merge a lot of zip archives, check your shell's file descriptor ulimit
52     and either increase it or run zipmerge multiple times with e.g. 1000
53     source zip archives each time.
