Hi, I have done a first cut of bringing latest GNU diffutils (2.8.1) to the FreeBSD base system. This consists two parts of changes: http://people.freebsd.org/~delphij/for_review/diff.shar A shar(1) package. Remove previous /usr/src/contrib/diff and run it over /usr/src. http://people.freebsd.org/~delphij/for_review/diff.diff A patchset to build skeleton. Use patch -p0 < diff.diff in /usr/src/. Please be sure to remove 0-byte files afterward. Some notes: - I have tried to keep as most our local features (DIFF_OPTIONS, etc), but we still need to have some test cases to figure out whether there is regression. - Local changes are now maintained as patchsets. - Still need to find a better way to handle local manpage changes... Comments? Cheers, -- Xin LI <delphij_at_delphij.net> http://www.delphij.net/ FreeBSD - The Power to Serve!
