[Request] HDiffPatch and JojoDiff Support

sisong opened this issue · 3 comments

I like HDiffPatch , JojoDiff , bsdiff and xdelta3 for binary data Diff & Patch;
HDiffPatch: https://github.com/sisong/HDiffPatch fast , create small differential; support large files;
JojoDiff: https://sourceforge.net/p/jojodiff/code/ci/master/tree can generate very small or very big diff's instead of others;

Does anyone release patch files in these formats?

Most people who use MultiPatch use it for fan translations or other modifications to video games. I do not see any patches released in the HDiff or JojoDiff formats. If people are using them, I can look into adding support for them. If they are not used yet, then I want to wait until people use these formats.

The numbers you posted for HDiff look nice, but there are a lot of patching formats that exist and were only used a few times. If a format is not used often, then there won't be any patches for me to download and test to know that the program is working correctly. Please let me know if you find some projects that use either HDiffPatch or JojoDiff to release changes.

I will leave this issue open because even if nobody is using them now, if someone uses them in the future I should add them.

such as: Inno Setup XDELTA Patch Maker support xdelta3 , JojoDiff and HDiffPatch, from Inno Setup .
it used to create patch for game or app, steam game is used more;

It needs to run under windows, but I use macos ;

To clarify, I am not asking about software to create the patch. (XDELTA Patch Maker 🚫)

I am asking for examples of the formats being used. What steam game uses them? 🎮 I want to know about patches to use. What games can I get patches for to test the patches?
