SNAPSHOT-COMPARE(1C)					  SNAPSHOT-COMPARE(1C)

NAME
       snapshot-compare	- compare two snapshots	of a directory tree

SYNOPSIS
       snapshot-compare	  <snapshot-1>	 <snapshot-2>  [:strip=N]  [:strip1=N]
       [:strip2=N]

DESCRIPTION
       snapshot-compare

       will load the two directory  snapshot  databases,  strip	 a  number  of
       slashes from the	pathnames of the files in the databases, then generate
       a  report describing files which	are in one snapshot but	not the	other,
       and also	what files which have different	MD5  checksums	between	 snap-
       shots.

       The  following  example shows that the file foo.bar is contained	exclu-
       sively in the x.after snapshot, and the snapshot-compare.1 file is dif-
       ferent between snapshots.

       bosa00> ./snapshot-compare x.before x.after
       ; loading x.before
       ; done 227 files
       ; loading x.after
       ; done 229 files
       ; x.after /moby/src/kit/foo.bar
       diff /moby/src/kit/snapshot-compare.1

       The effect of the strip parameter is demonstrated in this example:

       bosa00> ./snapshot-compare x.before x.after :strip=3
       ; loading x.before
       ; done 227 files
       ; loading x.after
       ; done 229 files
       ; strip 3 levels	of / from x.before
       ; strip 3 levels	of / from x.after
       ; x.after kit/foo.bar
       diff kit/snapshot-compare.1

EXIT STATUS
       Errors result in	a non-zero exit	status.
