💅 UNIFY(1) — the unify manual, but make it make sense ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to unify, section 1 of the User Commands manual. Yes, the manual name is literally in the title up there and it's also the program name, we love a consistent queen. This is version 1.2.2 and she is ready to serve you diff transformations. 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

unify — the manual page for unify 1.2.2, no cap 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

unify [OPTION]... [FILE]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

unify — okay so what she does is take context diffs and transform them into unidiffs, or, like, the other way around. Both directions, she's versatile like that. 🔥

💖 the options, in all their glory

  • -c, --context-diffs — forces the output to be context diffs. periodt.
  • -e, --echo-comments — echoes comments out to standard error. yes, stderr, she's being dramatic on purpose 💀
  • -o, --old-diffs — outputs old-style diffs, no matter what. like, no matter what, she said what she said.
  • -p, --patch-format — generates patch format 🩹
  • -P — literally the same as -p. that's it. that's the whole flag.
  • -s, --strip-comments — strips comment lines. bye bestie 👋
  • -u, --unidiffs — forces the output to unidiffs ✨
  • -U — same as -p and -u together. combo move, iconic.
  • -=, --use-equals — replaces spaces with equal signs in unidiffs. = era fr fr
  • --help — displays this help, then exits. a helpful queen 🫶
  • --version — displays the program version, then exits. main character energy.
ok so important detail: if FILE is not specified, she reads from standard input. don't leave her hanging, or do, she's fine with stdin honestly 💜
