repodiff

NAME

repodiff − list differences between two or more Yum repositories

SYNOPSIS

repodiff −−old=old_repo_baseurl −−new=new_repo_baseurl

DESCRIPTION

repodiff is a program which will list differences between two sets of repositories. Note that by default only source packages are compared.

GENERAL OPTIONS

−−old, −o

Add a repo. as an old repo.

−−new, −n

Add a repo. as an new repo.

−−archlist, −a

Add architectures to change the default from just comparing source packages. Note that if you want the same as a native "x86_64" architecture machine you just need to pass "x86_64" (this is different from earlier versions where you needed to specify "x86_64,athlon,i686,i586,i486,i386,noarch" and you still got "src").

−−size, −s

Output additional data about the size of the changes.

−−compare−arch

Normally packages are just compared based on their name, this flag makes the comparison also use the arch. So foo.i386 and foo.x86_64 are different.

EXAMPLES

Compare source pkgs in two local repos:

repodiff −−old=/tmp/repo-old −−new=/tmp/repo-new

Compare x86_64 compat. binary pkgs in two remote repos, and two local
one:

repodiff −a x86_64 −−old=http://example.com/repo1-old −−old=/tmp/repo-old −−new=http://example.com/repo1-new −−new=/tmp/repo-new

Compare x86_64 compat. binary pkgs, but also compare arch:

repodiff −a x86_64 −−compare−arch −−old=http://example.com/repo1-old −−old=/tmp/repo-old −−new=http://example.com/repo1-new −−new=/tmp/repo-new
