NAME
qbpatch - quick binary diff

SYNOPSIS
qbpatch [ old_file new_file diff_file ]

DESCRIPTION
Applies the previously computed difference diff_file to old_file to create new_file

qbdiff (and by extension qbpatch ) is an improved and modernised version of bsdiff by Colin Percival. The command-line invocation is deliberately the same as of bspatch

INTEGRITY CHECKING
The integrity of the newly created file is checked by qbpatch using the BLAKE2b checksum embedded in the patch file. If the checksum does not match, an error is reported.
