ZCK_DELTA_SIZE(1) FreeBSD General Commands Manual ZCK_DELTA_SIZE(1)

zck_delta_size
calculate the differences between two zchunk files

zck_delta_size [-v | --verbose] file1 file2

zck_delta_size -? | --help | --usage | --version

The zck_delta_size utility examines two zchunk compressed files and determines how similar they are: how many chunks are the same between the files, so that tools like e.g. rsync(1) or zckdl(1) could only transfer the small parts that differ instead of the full files. This is especially useful for structured files that have been compressed using the zck(1) tool's -s (--split) option.

The zck_delta_size utility accepts the following optional arguments:

, --verbose
Verbose operation; display some diagnostic output.
-?, --help
Display program usage information and exit.
Display brief program usage information and exit.
Display program version information and exit.

The zck_delta_size utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

Examine two zchunk files:

zck_delta_size doc1.txt.zck doc2.txt.zck

unzck(1), zck(1), zck_gen_zdict(1), zck_read_header(1), zckdl(1)
