- Compare two files:
|
|
|
|
`diffoscope {{path/to/file1}} {{path/to/file2}}`
|
|
|
|
- Compare two files without displaying a progress bar:
|
|
|
|
`diffoscope --no-progress {{path/to/file1}} {{path/to/file2}}`
|
|
|
|
- Compare two files and write an HTML-report to a file (use `-` for `stdout`):
|
|
|
|
`diffoscope --html {{path/to/outfile|-}} {{path/to/file1}} {{path/to/file2}}`
|
|
|
|
- Compare two directories excluding files with a name matching a specified pattern:
|
|
|
|
`diffoscope --exclude {{pattern}} {{path/to/directory1}} {{path/to/directory2}}`
|
|
|
|
- Compare two directories and control whether directory metadata is considered:
|
|
|
|
`diffoscope --exclude-directory-metadata {{auto|yes|no|recursive}} {{path/to/directory1}} {{path/to/directory2}}`
