Many of these are pointless (e.g. there is no need to explicitly turn on spellchecking and language dictionaries for the manpages by default). The only useful modelines are the ones enforcing the project coding standards for indentation style (and "maybe" filetype/syntax, but everything except the asciidoc manpages and makepkg.conf is already autodetected), and indent style can be applied more easily with .editorconfig Signed-off-by: Eli Schwartz <eschwartz@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

|
|
pkgdelta - package delta generation utility
|
|
|
|
|
|
Synopsis
|
|
--------
|
|
'pkgdelta' [options] <package1> <package2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
'pkgdelta' is used to create package delta files between two versions of the
|
|
same package. These files are essentially binary patches. linkman:pacman[8] can
|
|
download deltas instead of full package upgrades, and use them with the
|
|
previous versions of packages (in the package cache) to synthesize the upgraded
|
|
version of the packages. This likely reduces download sizes for upgrades
|
|
significantly.
|
|
|
|
'pkgdelta' requires linkman:xdelta3[1] to do its job.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Options
|
|
-------
|
|
*--max-delta-size <ratio>*::
|
|
Only create delta files if the delta is smaller than ratio * package_size.
|
|
Possible values: 0.0 to 2.0.
|
|
Recommended values: 0.2 to 0.9.
|
|
Default value: 0.7
|
|
|
|
*--min-pkg-size <size>*::
|
|
Minimal size of the package file in bytes to be considered for delta creation.
|
|
Default value: 1048576 bytes = 1 MiB. This may be any absolute size in bytes or
|
|
a human-readable value such as `4MiB` or `3.5MB`.
|
|
|
|
*-q, \--quiet*::
|
|
Be quiet. Do not output anything but warnings and errors.
