QIDIFF(1)		     General Commands Manual		       QIDIFF(1)

NAME
     qidiff -- show the differences since the last quilt refresh

SYNOPSIS
     qidiff

DESCRIPTION
     The  qidiff  utility shows the differences between the current state of the
     tree and the last refreshed quilt(1)  patch.   It	runs  "quilt  diff"  and
     passes  it through interdiff(1) to show the changes since the last refresh-
     ing.

     To obtain the location where quilt(1) stores its patches, the qidiff  util-
     ity performs the following tests:

     *	if the QUILT_PATCHES environment variable is set, its value is used.

     *	if  the  .quiltrc  file  is  present in the user's home directory, it is
	sourced in a subshell and the value  of  the  QUILT_PATCHES  environment
	variable is used, if defined.

     *	otherwise, patches is used as the name of the quilt(1) patch directory.

RETURN VALUES
     The qidiff utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

ENVIRONMENT
     QUILT_PATCHES
	     The directory where quilt(1) stores its patches.

FILES
     $HOME/.quiltrc
	     The  file	sourced  (if available) if the QUILT_PATCHES environment
	     variable is not set.
