OVERVIEW

The rejmerge utility inspects and merges files rejected during package upgrades.

It is a fork of CRUX rejmerge (from pkgutils) at commit 9ca0da6 (Sat Nov 17 2018), with the following changes:

• POSIX sh(1p) instead of bash(1)
• Support of suckless sbase (see extra/suckless_sbase.patch)
• Manual pages in scdoc(5) format
  • Split into rejmerge(8) and rejmerge.conf(5)
• GNU-style options, help, and usage output
• New -c/--config option to specify an alternate config file
• New -n/--dry-run option to print the diffs without any action
• Bash completion

See git log for full history.
