The diffstat
command calculates the differences, such as insertions, deletions, and modifications, for each file based on the comparison results of diff
.
diffstat [options] [files]
-c
: Prefixes each line of output with#
to make it a comment line for aShell
script.-C
: AddsSGR
color escape sequences to highlight the histogram.-e
: Redirects standard error tofile
.-f <num>
: Specifies the format of the histogram.0
only shows the value of insertion+
, deletion-
, or modification!
and a single histogram code.1
is the normal output.2
fills the histogram with dots.4
prints a histogram for each value. Any nonzero value provides a histogram, dots, and single values in combination.-H
: Prints a usage message and exits.-k
: Prevents merging file names in the report.-l
: Lists only file names without generating a histogram.-n <file length>
: Specifies the length of the file name, which must be greater than or equal to the longest file name in all files.-o <file>
: Redirects standard output tofile
.-p <file length>
: Same as the-n
parameter, but here<file length>
includes the file's path.-r
: Provides optional rounding of the data shown on the histogram instead of truncating by error adjustment.0
is the default value, which does not perform rounding, but accumulated errors are added to the following columns.1
rounds the data.2
rounds the data and adjusts the histogram to ensure that even if there is usually rounding, there are differences.-t
: Overrides the histogram to generate comma-separated value output.-u
: Prevents sorting file names in the report.-v
: Shows progress, for example, if the output is redirected to a file, progress messages are written to standard error.-w
: Specifies the width of the output field.-V
: Shows version information.
Calculate the difference information of the comparison result of diff
.
diff file.txt file2.txt | diffstat -v
Calculate the difference information of the comparison result of diff
, only lists file names without generating a histogram.
diff file.txt file2.txt | diffstat -l
Calculate the difference information of the comparison result of diff
, specifying the maximum width of the histogram.
diff file.txt file2.txt | diffstat -w 11
