| Summary : diff and patch for binary data
|
Description :
Given source and target data, the \'Vcdiff::diff\' function computes a
\"delta\" that encodes the difference information needed to turn source into
target. Anyone who has source and delta can derive target with the
\'Vcdiff::patch\' function.
The point of this module is that if the source and target inputs are
related then delta can be small relative to target, meaning it may be more
efficient to send delta updates to clients over the network instead of
re-sending the whole target every time.
Even though source and target don\'t necessarily have to be binary data
(regular data is fine too), the delta will contain binary data including
NUL bytes so if your transport protocols don\'t support this you will have
to encode or escape the delta in some way (ie base64). Compressing the
delta before you do this might be worthwhile depending on the size of your
changes and the entropy of your data.
The delta format is described by http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3284.html,
\"The VCDIFF Generic Differencing and Compression Data Format\".
