- Review files that need maintenance in interactive mode:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`pacdiff`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Use sudo and sudoedit to remove and merge files:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`pacdiff --sudo`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Review files needing maintenance, creating `.bak`ups of the original if you `(O)verwrite`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`pacdiff --sudo --backup`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Use a specific editor to view and merge configuration files (default is `vim -d`):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`DIFFPROG={{editor}} pacdiff`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Scan for configuration files with `locate` instead of using pacman database:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`pacdiff --locate`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Display help:
|
||
|

`pacdiff --help`
