ok so you found the xmlpatch page, that's the xmlpatch(1) manual, and honestly? you're about to have a great time. let's go 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

xmlpatch — patch an XML file with an xmldiff 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

xmlpatch [-h] [-v]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. two flags, zero drama 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so xmlpatch is a command-line utility whose whole entire job is patching an XML file with an xmldiff. main character energy, honestly. 👑

and what's the patchfile, you ask? it's a file that the xmldiff command gives you. that's the tea. 🍓

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -h, --help — shows you the help message and then dips. exit. 🎀
  • -v, --version — displays the version and then also dips. exit. ✨
not me giving you two whole options and both of them are just "print something then leave" 😭 iconic behaviour fr fr

✨ EXAMPLE ✨

ok so picture this: you got a patchfile, you got an xmlfile, and you want one to happen to the other. the following command will use a patchfile to patch the xmlfile. simple as:

$ xmlpatch patchfile xmlfile

slay. that's it. that's the whole ritual 🌸
