DESCRIPTION

Show differences between two lists in a format like 'diff -y', but where every difference creates is a new line instead of attempting to find changes within a line. difflists sorts the incoming lists.

  • -b, --bare

    don't show >< symbols

  • -s, --supp, --suppress-common-lines

    show only entries missing from either list (only how they differ)

  • -l, --left

    only show entries from the left list that are not in the right (assumes --bare)

  • -c, --comm, --common-lines

    show only entries that only occur in both lists (only how they are the same)

  • -u, --unique

    exclude duplicates from the output

The use of --comm, --supp and --left are mutually exclusive.
