bpatch - apply binary batch
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
bpatch [options] old-file [ new-file ] [<patch-file]
|
|
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
bpatch applies a binary patch generated by bdiff. Patches are read from standard
|
|
input unless the --input option is used to specify an input file.
|
|
|
|
old-file is the same file as used as the first argument to bdiff. bpatch will
|
|
create a copy of the file given as second argument to bdiff in new-file by using
|
|
the information from old-file and patch-file.
|
|
|
|
If new-file is omitted, the old file is replaced with the new file.
|
|
|
|
bpatch will detect if the patch does not match old-file, or if the patch has
|
|
been garbled. Remember to transmit binary patches as binary files!
|
|
|
|
In case of an error, new-file will not be touched.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
