.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm checkupdate
|
|
.Nd "check a translation of the FreeBSD doc/ tree for source updates"
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
.Op Fl acenpPqtv
|
|
.Op Fl R Ar workspace
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility checks a translation of the FreeBSD
|
|
.Pa "doc/"
|
|
tree for source updates, i.e.\& changes in their original English source
|
|
files which may be interesting to merge.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The list of files to check can be specified in the command-line of the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility, or it can be fed to the script through its standard input
|
|
stream.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The number of checks performed, and the format of the script output are
|
|
controlled by command-line options.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Fl f Ar flist"
|
|
.It Fl a
|
|
Enable all file checks for each input file.
|
|
.It Fl c
|
|
Generate compact report primarily suitable for commit logs. It will
|
|
only contain revision difference information and names of the affected
|
|
files. This will automatically disable
|
|
.Dq patch preview
|
|
mode.
|
|
.It Fl e
|
|
Report everything.
|
|
File revision information is displayed for all the files of our input
|
|
list, and not just the files that actually need to be updated.
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
Disable all file checks.
|
|
.It Fl p
|
|
Run in
|
|
.Dq patch preview
|
|
mode.
|
|
Whenever a difference is found in the revisions of the original
|
|
translated file and the current English revision, show a patch of the
|
|
untranslated changes.
|
|
.It Fl P
|
|
Do not be so
|
|
.Dq picky
|
|
and show all the information even if files do not contain tags. It is
|
|
disabled by default and it is not recommended to use.
|
|
.It Fl q
|
|
Run in
|
|
.Dq quiet
|
|
mode.
|
|
No status messages are printed in the standard error stream of the
|
|
script, and if there are no updates to show its standard output shows
|
|
nothing at all.
|
|
This mode is useful for
|
|
.Xr crontab 5
|
|
entries, where it's ok to run without any output at all, to avoid
|
|
spurious email messages from
|
|
.Xr cron 8 .
|
|
.It Fl R Ar workspace
|
|
Switch to another
|
|
.Ar workspace
|
|
path before checking file translation updates.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
script assumes that it runs in the toplevel directory of the
|
|
.Fx
|
|
.Pa doc/
|
|
tree.
|
|
If this is not true, then the
|
|
.Fl R
|
|
option should be used to point to the toplevel directory of the
|
|
.Pa doc/
|
|
tree.
|
|
.It Fl t
|
|
Run in
|
|
.Dq tuple mode .
|
|
This option implies
|
|
.Fl e
|
|
too.
|
|
When the script runs in tuple mode it prints Python tuples with the file
|
|
information it collects for all the files, instead of parsing and
|
|
presenting the information in human readable format.
|
|
This may be a bit useful for post-processing the output of the script to
|
|
generate output in different ways.
|
|
.It Fl v
|
|
Bump verbosity level.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
script runs in
|
|
.Dq quiet mode
|
|
by default.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl v
|
|
option increases the verbosity level, and it can be used multiple times
|
|
for extra verbosity.
