Good evening from Wisconsin, This post is regarding the xdelta-1.1.3 port included in FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE. Please direct me to the proper mailing list if this is not where I should be posting. I am attempting to use xdelta on tar files currently just over 8.2GB. My syntax to get the delta is "xdelta delta oldtarfile newtarfile patchfile" according to the man page. When the patchfile has been created, it is around 5.3MB in size. To verify the patchfile, using "xdelta patch patchfile oldtarfile newtarfiletest" yield a newtarfiletest of 465MB. Available space shouldn't be an issue, as I have 22GB available on this partition. Could anyone here provide some insight as to why this xdelta port isn't functioning as advertised?
