RECOUNTDIFF(1) Man pages RECOUNTDIFF(1)NAME
recountdiff - recompute patch counts and offsets
SYNOPSIS
recountdiff [file...]
recountdiff {[--help] | [--version]}
DESCRIPTION
recountdiff recomputes the counts and offsets in unified context diffs. It does this in two passes: first the counts are corrected by
inspection of the actual patch lines, and then the offsets are adjusted according to the computed counts.
The corrected diff is sent to standard output.
OPTIONS --help
Display a short usage message.
--version
Display the version number of recountdiff.
LIMITATIONS
There are some things that cannot be dealt with. If you have removed the first context line in a hunk, for example, there is no way for
recountdiff to know that. For more precise fixing up, use rediff(1), which uses the original and modified diffs.

REDIFF(1) Man pages REDIFF(1)NAME
rediff, editdiff - fix offsets and counts of a hand-edited diff
SYNOPSIS
rediff ORIGINAL EDITED
rediff EDITED
rediff {[--help] | [--version]}
editdiff FILE
editdiff {[--help] | [--version]}
DESCRIPTION
You can use rediff to correct a hand-edited unified diff. Take a copy of the diff you want to edit, and edit it without changing any
offsets or counts (the lines that begin "@@"). Then run rediff, telling it the name of the original diff file and the name of the one you
have edited, and it will output the edited diff file but with corrected offsets and counts.
A small script, editdiff, is provided for editing a diff file in-place.
The types of changes that are currently handled are:
o Modifying the text of any file content line (of course).
o Adding new line insertions or deletions.
o Adding, changing or removing context lines. Lines at the context horizon are dealt with by adjusting the offset and/or count.
o Adding a single hunk (@@-prefixed section).
o Removing multiple hunk (@@-prefixed sections).
Alternatively, if only one argument is provided, it is taken to be the edited file and the counts and offsets are adjusted as appropriate.
Some assumptions are made when used in this mode. See recountdiff(1) for more information.
OPTIONS --help
Display a short usage message.
--version
Display the version number of rediff.
