filetraq for Debian ------------------- [ Joost van Baal-Ilić, Aug 2018 ] Since 2018 this is a Debian native package, and Debian is upstream. I've contacted upstream Jeremy Weatherford on this: From: Joost van Baal-Ilić To: Jeremy Weatherford Subject: filetraq releases, filetraq in Debian Date: Mon, 27 Aug 2018 12:15:04 +0200 Message-ID: <20180827101504.GO24057@beskar.mdcc.cx> Hi Jeremy Weatherford, [...] Are you still interested in maintaining and hosting the filetraq code? [...] https://salsa.debian.org/debian/filetraq/blob/master/debian/patches/01_filetraq.patch https://salsa.debian.org/debian/filetraq/blob/master/debian/patches/02_filetraq.conf.patch [...] If you're no longer interested in the filetraq code, and no new release is expected from you anymore, I'd be interested in hearing that. Thanks a lot for sharing filetraq [...] Joost Date: Mon, 27 Aug 2018 14:25:31 -0400 From: Jeremy Weatherford To: Joost van Baal-Ilić Subject: Re: filetraq releases, filetraq in Debian Message-ID: Hi Joost, [...] Feel free to keep developing it or do anything you like with the code - I haven't done anything with it in 18 years [...] Thanks, Jeremy [ Sergio Talens-Oliag , Mon, 28 Jan 2002 09:11:41 +0100 ] To use the cronjob create an /etc/filetraq.conf file, there's an example on '/usr/share/doc/filetraq/filetraq.conf'. The script has been modified to accept a couple of configuration options; 'diffopts' and 'difforder'. The first option lets the user choose the diff options she likes (see man diff) and the second one lets the user choose the order of the file comparisons, 'newold' or 'oldnew' (default is 'newold'). To set the options you have to create the file '/etc/default/filetraq' and write the options with shell syntax, i.e.: diffopts="-u -b" difforder="oldnew"
