- Compare files:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`xzdiff {{path/to/file1}} {{path/to/file2}}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Compare files, showing the differences side by side:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`xzdiff --side-by-side {{path/to/file1}} {{path/to/file2}}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Compare files and report only that they differ (no details on what is different):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`xzdiff --brief {{path/to/file1}} {{path/to/file2}}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Compare files and report when the files are the same:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`xzdiff --report-identical-files {{path/to/file1}} {{path/to/file2}}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Compare files using paginated results:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
