DESCRIPTION
List the files modified by a patch.
You can use both unified and context format diffs with this program.
OPTIONS
| Tag | Description |
|---|---|
| -n |
Display the line number that each patch begins at. If verbose output is requested (using
-nv), each hunk of each patch is listed as well.
For each file that is modified, a line is generated containing the line number of the beginning of the patch, followed by a Tab character, followed by the name of the file that is modified. If -v is given once, following each of these lines will be one line for each hunk, consisting of a Tab character, the line number that the hunk begins at, another Tab character, the string Hunk #, and the hunk number (starting at 1). If the -v is given twice in conjunction with -n (i.e. -nvv), the format is slightly different: hunk-level descriptive text is shown after each hunk number, and the --number-files option is enabled. |
| --number-files | |
| File numbers are listed, beginning at 1, before each filename. | |
| -# RANGE | --hunks=RANGE | |
| Only list hunks within the specified RANGE. Hunks are numbered from 1, and the range is a comma-separated list of numbers or first-last spans; either the first or the last in the span may be omitted to indicate no limit in that direction. | |
| --lines=RANGE | |
| Only list hunks that contain lines from the original file that lie within the specified RANGE. Lines are numbered from 1, and the range is a comma-separated list of numbers or first-last spans; either the first or the last in the span may be omitted to indicate no limit in that direction. | |
| --files=RANGE | |
| Only list files indicated by the specified RANGE. Files are numbered from 1 in the order they appear in the patch input, and the range is a comma-separated list of numbers or first-last spans; either the first or the last in the span may be omitted to indicate no limit in that direction. | |
| -p n | When matching, ignore the first n components of the pathname. |
| --strip=n | |
| Remove the first n components of the pathname before displaying it. | |
| --addprefix=PREFIX | |
| Prefix the pathname with PREFIX before displaying it. | |
| -s | Show file additions, modifications and removals. A file addition is indicated by a +, a removal by a -, and a modification by a !. |
| -E | Treat empty files as absent for the purpose of displaying file additions, modifications and removals. |
| -i PATTERN | |
| Include only files matching PATTERN. | |
| -x PATTERN | |
| Exclude files matching PATTERN. | |
| -H, --with-filename | |
| Print the name of the patch file containing each patch. | |
| -h, --no-filename | |
| Suppress the name of the patch file containing each patch. | |
| -v | Verbose output. |
| --help | Display a short usage message. |
| --version | |
| Display the version number of lsdiff. | |
| --filter | |
| Behave like filterdiff(1) instead. | |
| --grep | Behave like grepdiff(1) instead. |

EXAMPLES
To sort the order of touched files in a patch, you can use:
lsdiff patch | sort -u | \ xargs -rn1 filterdiff patch -i |
To show only added files in a patch:
lsdiff -s patch | grep ’^+’ | \ cut -c2- | xargs -rn1 filterdiff patch -i |
To show the headers of all file hunks:
lsdiff -n patch | (while read n file do sed -ne "$n,$(($n+1))p" patch done) |
