.SH "DESCRIPTION"

.PP
fixcvsdiff modifies diff files created from the \fBcvs diff\fR command, where files have been added or removed\&. CVS tends to create diff files that \fBpatch\fR(1) mis\-interprets\&. The diff file must retain the lines beginning with ``Index:'' in order for the correction to work\&.

.SH "OPTIONS"

.TP
\fB\-b\fR
Keep a \&.bak backup file\&.

.TP
\fB\-p\fR
Print out the \fBcvs add\fR and \fBcvs remove\fR commands that must be made after applying the diff, but before running \fBcvs commit\fR\&.

.SH "SEE ALSO"

.PP
\fBdiff\fR(1), \fBpatch\fR(1), \fBcvs\fR(1)
