* The -b switch requires now argument
* The -s switch defines the location of /usr/src/etc (used to be /usr/src)
* Manual page fixes
* Better menu after merge
* Possibility to undo merge
Usage:
# etcupdate -s /some/where/src/etc
or
# mkdir /tmp/temproot
# cd /tmp/temproot
# tar xzf /some/where/etc.tgz
# etcupdate -b /tmp/temproot
I did not update the version tag because this is only minor fix to
the manual page. Otherwise we would have several versions per day
as this tool is still under construction...
performing an operating system upgrade.
The idea for this script (including code fragments, variable names etc.)
came from the FreeBSD mergemaster (by Douglas Barton). Unlike the FreeBSD
mergemaster, this does not use CVS version tags to compare if the files
need to be updated. Files are compared with /usr/bin/cmp as this is more
reliable and the only way if the version numbers are same even though the
files are different.
