Patchutils - Tools for manipulating patch files

Patchutils contains the following tools for manipulating patch files: interdiff, combinediff, filterdiff, fixcvsdiff, rediff, lsdiff, and splitdiff. You can use

interdiff- creates an incremental patch from two patches against a common source
combinediff- creates a single patch from two incremental patches
filterdiff- selects patches based on files matching shell wildcards
lsdiff- lists modified files in a patch
rediff- corrects hand-edited patches
fixcvsdiff- corrects the output of 'cvs diff'
splitdiff- separates patches so that each new file alters a given file only once
