.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBunwrapdiff\fR demangles patches that have been word\-wrapped, in an attempt to make them useful\&.
.PP
The corrected diff is sent to standard output\&. Note that you will probably need to use the \fB\-l\fR option when applying the patch, in order to ignore any whitespace differences there may be\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.TP
\fB\-v\fR
Verbose operation\&. A list of lines that are modified in a way that might be wrong is sent to stderr\&.
.TP
\fB\-\-help\fR
Display a short usage message\&.
.TP
\fB\-\-version\fR
Display the version number of unwrapdiff\&.
.SH "LIMITATIONS"
.PP
Some heuristics are used to decide whether use a space to recombine a wrapped line, or just join them together\&. Currently this is done by comparing with last three characters of a line with the first two characters of its continuation, and using a space of any of them are different\&.
.PP
The patch needs to have been valid before being word\-wrapped\&.
.PP
The last line of a hunk is nearly always ambiguous\&. If the next line begins ``@@'', ``Index:\~'', ``diff\~'' or ``\-\-\-\~'' then it is taken to be complete; otherwise it is unwrapped using the next line\&.
