A directory comparison tool written in Rust that generates executable patch files.

一个用Rust编写的目录比较工具，可以生成可执行的补丁文件。

中文

• Compare file differences between two directories
• Generate executable patch files (.exe)
• Verify target directory before applying patches
• Support for specifying verification files to ensure patches are applied to the correct directory
• Exclude specific file extensions or directories from comparison
• Efficient file difference extraction and application
• Utilize parallel processing to accelerate comparison and patch application for large directories
• Smart I/O optimization to avoid disk bottlenecks from excessive parallelism
• Incremental patching with diff patches to reduce patch size

diffpatch create --source <SOURCE_DIR> --target <TARGET_DIR> --output <PATCH_FILE> --check-files <VERIFY_FILE1,VERIFY_FILE2,...> --exclude-extensions <EXT1,EXT2,...> --exclude-dirs <DIR1,DIR2,...> --use-diff-patches

• --source <DIR>: Source directory (original files)
• --target <DIR>: Target directory (modified files)
• --output <FILE>: Output patch file name (default to target directory)
• --check-files <FILES>: Comma-separated list of verification files that must exist in the target directory
• --exclude-extensions <EXTENSIONS>: Comma-separated list of file extensions to exclude (e.g., .tmp,.bak)
• --exclude-dirs <DIRS>: Comma-separated list of directories to exclude (e.g., node_modules,dist)
• --use-diff-patches <true|false>: Use file difference patches instead of storing full files (reduces patch size)

You can control I/O parallelism via environment variables, especially when dealing with large directories:

# Set the number of file I/O parallel threads (default is the lesser of CPU cores and 4)
# For high-performance SSDs, you can increase this value
# For mechanical hard drives, reducing this value might be more effective
export DIFFPATCH_IO_THREADS=2
diffpatch create --source ... --target ...

Place the generated patch file in the directory that needs to be updated, and double-click to run it. The patch program will first verify that the directory is correct, then quickly apply the file changes using parallel processing.

cargo build --release

The compiled executable will be located in the target/release/ directory.

• Cross-platform compatibility for generated patches
• Support for symbolic links and other special file types
• Digital signature verification for patches
• Web interface for patch creation and management
• Compression level configuration for patch size optimization

一个用Rust编写的目录比较工具，可以生成可执行的补丁文件。

• 对比两个目录的文件差异
• 生成可执行的补丁文件（.exe）
• 补丁文件运行时会先验证目标目录是否正确
• 支持指定必要的验证文件，确保补丁应用在正确的目录中
• 支持排除特定后缀名的文件或特定文件夹
• 高效的文件差异提取和应用
• 利用并行处理加速大型目录的比较和补丁应用
• 智能I/O优化，避免过度并行导致的磁盘瓶颈
• 增量差异补丁以减小补丁文件大小

diffpatch create --source <未修改的目录> --target <修改后的目录> --output <补丁文件名> --check-files <验证文件1,验证文件2,...> --exclude-extensions <排除文件后缀名1,排除文件后缀名2,...> --exclude-dirs <排除文件夹1,排除文件夹2,...> --use-diff-patches

• --source <DIR>: 源目录（原始文件夹）
• --target <DIR>: 目标目录（修改后的文件夹）
• --output <FILE>: 输出补丁文件名（默认输出到目标目录）
• --check-files <FILES>: 逗号分隔的验证文件列表，这些文件必须存在于目标目录中
• --exclude-extensions <EXTENSIONS>: 逗号分隔的要排除的文件扩展名列表（例如，.tmp,.bak）
• --exclude-dirs <DIRS>: 逗号分隔的要排除的目录列表（例如，node_modules,dist）
• --use-diff-patches <true|false>: 使用文件差异补丁而不是存储完整文件（减小补丁大小）

可以通过环境变量控制I/O并行度，特别是在处理大型目录时：

# 设置文件I/O并行线程数（默认为CPU核心数和4之间的较小值）
# 对于高性能SSD，可以增加此值；对于机械硬盘，减小此值可能会更有效
export DIFFPATCH_IO_THREADS=2
diffpatch create --source ... --target ...

将生成的补丁文件放到需要更新的目录中，双击运行即可。补丁程序会先验证目录是否正确，然后利用并行处理快速应用文件更改。

cargo build --release

编译后的可执行文件将位于 target/release/ 目录中。
