一、diff结果及patch文件的详解
cat before.txt
输出:
This is a line to be deleted
This is a line that will be changed
This is a line that will be unchanged
cat after.txt
输出:
This is a line that has been changed
This is a line that will be unchanged
This is a line that has been added
############################################
diff before.txt after.txt
输 出:
1,2c1
< This is a line to be deleted
< This is a line that will be changed
---
> This is a line that has been changed
3a3
> This is a line that has been added
############################################
注释:
传统格式的输出
1,2c1是指替换第1个文件的第1,2行到第2个文件的第2行,这里的1,2是指第1个文件的第1,2行,c是替换的意思,最后的1是第2个文件的第1行
<号是指第1个文件更改或删除的行
---号是分割两个文件
>号是第2个文件中增加或删除的行
3a3是指将第2个文件的第3行插入到第一个文件的第3行
也就是说第1个文件的:
< This is a line to be deleted
< This is a line that will be changed
被替换成第2个文件的:
> This is a line that has been changed
由于第1个文件的第3行和第2个文件的第2行一致,所以不做修改.
由于第2个文件的第3行是第1个文件所不具有的,所以在第1个文件的最后一行增加:
> This is a line that has been added2)patch命令的应用
用diff的传统格式输出:
#################################
diff before.txt after.txt >mypatch.txt
#################################
用patch修补before.txt文件,使before.txt和after.txt一致.
#################################
cat mypatch.txt |patch before.txt

#################################
cmp before.txt after.txt
#################################
用patch命令恢复before.txt.

patch -R before.txt <mypatch.txt
输出:

#################################
注:-R标记告诉patch在反向上应用区别或者撤销patch.
再比较两个文件,现在不一致了.
#################################
cmp before.txt after.txt
输出:

diff -u before.txt after.txt |tee mypatch.diff

4)diff命令在目录中的应用.
新建old和new目录,old目录包含了初始内容,new目录包含文件的最新版本.
##########################################
mkdir old new
echo "This is one. It's unchanged." | tee old/one new/one
echo "This is two. It will change." > old/two

创建修补文件
##########################################
diff -Nur old/ new/ >mypatch.diff
##########################################
注:-r选项按照文件目录递归创建修补文件.
-u还是统一模式
-N是指当diff遇到一个只存在于两个树中的一个树中的文件时,默认情况下跳过文件并且打印一个警告到stderr.
这个行为可以通过-N选项来更改,这也导致了diff认为丢失的文件实际上是存在的,但它是空的.采用这种方式,
一个修补文件可以包括已经创建的文件.然后应用修补程序创建新的文件.

diff -Nur old/two new/two是指下面比较old/two new/two两个文件
因为old/two与new/two的第3行不一致,所以删除This is two. It will change.增加This is two. It changed.
打补丁到old目录,新建old/three以及更改old/two
##########################################

5)检查和合并更改
用vim突出显示单个字符的更改来表示区别.
##########################################
vim -d after.txt before.txt
##########################################
用gui工具gvimdiff来显示两个文件.
##########################################
gvimdiff after.txt before.txt
##########################################
新建文件orig.c
##########################################
vi orig.c
void foo(void)
{
printf("This will be changed by me. n");
printf("This will be unchanged,n");
printf("This will be changed by you.n");
}

复制文件orig.c到me.c,更改第4行为printf("This was changed by me. n");

printf("This will be unchanged,n");
printf("This will be changed by you.n");
}
##########################################
复制文件orig.c到you.c,更改第7行为printf("This was changed by you.n");
##########################################
vi you.c
void foo(void)
{
printf("This will be changed by me. n");
printf("This will be unchanged,n");
printf("This was changed by you.n");
}
diff3 me.c orig.c you.c
输出:

2:3c
3:3c
printf("This will be changed by me. n");
====3
1:7c
2:7c
printf("This will be changed by you.n");
3:7c
printf("This was changed by you.n");
注:
在没有参数的情况下,diff3产生的输出说明了那行更改.
====1和====3指明造成同原始文件不同的是哪一个修改文件.
编号方式基于参数序列.
也就是第1个文件和第3个文件与原文件不同.
1:3c
printf("This was changed by me. n");
3:3c
printf("This will be changed by me. n");
1:3c表示第1个文件的第3行与3:3c表示的第3个文件的第3行不同.
为什么不显示与原文件的比较呢。因为第3个文件的第3行与源文件(第2个文件)相同.所以与哪个文件比较无所谓了.
2:7c
printf("This will be changed by you.n");
3:7c
printf("This was changed by you.n");
2:7c表示第2个文件的第7行与3:7c表示的第3个文件的第7行不同.
diff3会试图为我们进行合并.合并是在源文件的基础上,依据两个新文件进行修改
源文件是第二个文件,第一个文件和第三个文件可以互换,但他们必须有共同的祖先,就是第二个文件.
#######################################
diff3 -m me.c orig.c you.c |cat -n

7 printf("This was changed by you.n");
8 }
########################################为了测试更复杂的环境,新建一个文件orig.c.1
内容如下:
########################################

用diff3 -m再次比较输出,如下:

首先介绍一下diff和patch。在这里不会把man在线文档上所有的选项都介绍一下,那样也没有必要。在99%的时间里,我们只会用到几个选项。所以必须学会这几个选项。
NAME
diff - find differences between two files
SYNOPSIS
diff [options] from-file to-file
--------------------
简 单的说,diff的功能就是用来比较两个文件的不同,然后记录下来,也就是所谓的diff补丁。语法格式:diff 【选项】 源文件(夹) 目的文件(夹),就是要给源文件(夹)打个补丁,使之变成目的文件(夹),术语也就是“升级”。下面介绍三个最为常用选项:
------------------
简单的说,patch就是利用diff制作的补丁来实现源文件(夹)和目的文件(夹)的转换。这样说就意味着你可以有源文件(夹)――>目的文件(夹),也可以目的文件(夹)――>源文件(夹)。下面介绍几个最常用选项:
************************************************************
下面结合具体实例来分析和解决,分为两种类型:为单个文件打补丁和为文件夹内的多个文件打补丁。
环境:在RedHat 9.0下面以armlinux用户登陆。
目录树如下:
|-- bootloader
下面在program文件夹下面建立patch文件夹作为实验用,然后进入patch文件夹。
1、建立测试文件test0、test1
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ cat >>test0<<EOF
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ more test0
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ cat >>test1<<EOF
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ more test1
2、使用diff创建补丁test1.patch
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ diff -uN test0 test1 > test1.patch
【注:因为单个文件,所以不需要-r选项。选项顺序没有关系,即可以是-uN,也可以是-Nu。】
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ ls
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ more test1.patch
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ patch -p0 < test1.patch
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ ls
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ cat test0
3、可以去除补丁,恢复旧版本
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ patch -RE -p0 < test1.patch
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ ls
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ cat test0
二、为多个文件进行补丁操作
1、创建测试文件夹
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ mkdir prj0
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ cd prj0/
[armlinux@lqm prj0]$ cat >>prj0name<<EOF
[armlinux@lqm prj0]$ ls
[armlinux@lqm prj0]$ cat prj0name
[armlinux@lqm prj0]$ cd ..
[armlinux@lqm prj1]$ cat prj1name
[armlinux@lqm prj1]$ cd ..
2、创建补丁
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ diff -uNr prj0 prj1 > prj1.patch
[armlinux@lqm patch]$ more prj1.patch
diff -uNr prj0/prj0name prj1/prj0name
