@diff.files - show file differences (between “these” files and “those” files)

Given:
  • a list of files
  • a directory name

Show files that differ (and/or their differences) between each file in the given list and its corresponding file in the other directory.

This is similar to @diff.tree, except that one main input is a list of files.

usage: @diff.files [options] file1 file2 ... old_dir

options:

-ignore_missing\ : continue even if files are missing
alt: -im
-longlist\ : instead of listing file, run ‘ls -l’ on both
alt: -ll
-save : create pdfs of diffs
-show : show diffs using ‘diff’
-xxdiff : show diffs using ‘xxdiff’
-X : implies -xxdiff and -ignore_missing’

examples:

@diff.files file1 some/other/directory @diff.files file1 file2 file3 some/other/directory @diff.files * some/other/directory

@diff.files -im * some/other/directory @diff.files -X * some/other/directory
