description
recountdiff
recomputes the counts and offsets in unified context diffs.
It does this in two passes: first the counts are corrected
by inspection of the actual patch lines, and then the
offsets are adjusted according to the computed counts.
The corrected
diff is sent to standard output.
options
--help
Display a short usage
message.
--version
Display the version number of
recountdiff.
limitations
There are some things that cannot be dealt with. If you have
removed the first context line in a hunk, for example, there is
no way for recountdiff to know that. For more precise
fixing up, use rediff(1), which uses the original and
modified diffs.
