Description

Xdelta provides the ability to generate deltas between a pair of files and later apply those deltas. It operates similar to the diff and patch commands, but works on binary files and does not produce a human readable output.

Xdelta has three subcommands, delta, patch, and info. Delta accepts two file versions and produces a delta, while patch accepts the original file version and delta and produces the second version.
