Patchutils news
---------------
0.4.3 (stable)
Added --in-place option to more tools for editing files in place.
Added --color option to interdiff with automatic terminal detection.
Improved PCRE2 support and fixed various build issues. Added support
for CRLF line endings in patch files. Fixed interdiff to reverse line
counts correctly when reversing patches. Added bash completions and
improved CI testing. Various bug fixes including use-after-free
warnings, unused result warnings, and locale-related test failures.
Updated documentation and example spec file.
Added new --as-numbered-lines options: original-before and original-after.
These preserve original line numbers from the diff context, useful for
CI/CD systems that need to report errors on exact line numbers from the
original diff. Addresses GitHub issue #55.
Fixed rediff to preserve diff command headers in multi-file patches.
Previously, rediff would remove "diff -rpU 3" command lines when
processing patches with multiple files, breaking the patch format.
Addresses GitHub issue #48.
Fixed recountdiff corruption of new file headers when git signature
lines are present. Previously, recountdiff would incorrectly change
"@@ -0,0 +1,N @@" to "@@ -1 +1,N @@" for new files in patches containing
git signature lines (e.g., "-- \n2.50.1"), causing patch application
to fail. Addresses GitHub issue #49.
0.4.2 (stable)
Build system improvements: only run xmlto once during documentation
generation.
0.4.0 (stable)
Added patchview utility for interactive patch viewing. Added PCRE2
library support as an alternative to PCRE. Added --only-match option
to grepdiff. Improved interdiff to provide more context when requested
and better handle whitespace damage. Fixed various issues including
hunk trimming, header output, context conversion, and handling of NUL
characters in patches. Updated FSF addresses and fixed resource leaks.
Improved test suite with parallel testing support.
0.3.4 (stable)
Some fixes for filterdiff and rediff. The splitdiff utility
now has an option to write output to a subdirectory. Ranges
can now be prefixed by a modifier ('x') to exclude spans
instead of include them. Extended headers produced by git are
now handled by filterdiff and interdiff.
0.3.3 (stable)
Context output format for "no newline" lines has been fixed.
The splitdiff utility now has an option to disable ".patch"
filename extensions. Some fixes for bugs spotted by
Coverity. Interdiff can now use "-" (stdin) for one of the
inputs.
0.3.2 (stable)
Interdiff had previously been putting absolute filenames in
the input to the patch program. It now avoids doing this.
Editdiff no longer runs rediff when no changes were made in
the editor. The correct exit status is now set when the
decompress option fails. A temporary file leak has been
fixed. The documentation has been updated.
0.3.0 (stable)
The lsdiff -H option is now the default, and new options have
been added to filterdiff for reading inclusion/exclusion
patterns from files, and for removing non-diff lines.
