1.1.3.4 . Differentiating bet ween Various Versions
To compare different versions of a file across channels and revisions, use the -r flag to indicate which
revision of the file should be compared and the -n flag to identify the two channels to be checked. See
Section 1.1.3.11, “Determining the Number of File Revisions” for related instructions. Specify only one file
name here, since you are comparing the file against another version of itself. For example:
rhncfg-manager diff-revi sions -n=channel-label1 -r=1 -n= channel-label2 -r=1
/path/to/file.txt
The output resembles the following:
--- /tm p/dest_path/example-config.txt 2004-01-13 14:36:41 \ config channel:
exam ple-channel2 revision: 1
--- /tm p/dest_path/example-config.txt 2004-01-13 14:42:42 \ config channel:
exam ple-channel3 revision: 1
