======================
DNF repodiff Plugin
======================

Display a list of differences between two or more repositories

--------
Synopsis
--------

``dnf repodiff [<options>]``

-----------
Description
-----------

`repodiff` is a program which will list differences between two sets of repositories.  Note that by default only source packages are compared.


Options
-------

All general DNF options are accepted, see `Options` in :manpage:`dnf(8)` for details.

``--repo-old=<repoid>, -o <repoid>``
    Add a ``<repoid>`` as an old repository. It is possible to be used in conjunction with ``--repofrompath`` option. Can be specified multiple times. 

``--repo-new=<repoid>, -n <repoid>``
    Add a ``<repoid>`` as a new repository. Can be specified multiple times.

``--archlist=<arch>, -a <arch>``
    Add architectures to change the default from just comparing source packages. Note that you can use a wildcard "*" for all architectures. Can be specified multiple times.

``--size, -s``
    Output additional data about the size of the changes.

``--compare-arch``
    Normally packages are just compared based on their name, this flag makes the comparison also use the arch. So foo.noarch and foo.x86_64 are considered to be a different packages.

``--simple``
    Output a simple one line message for modified packages.

``--downgrade``
    Split the data for modified packages between upgraded and downgraded packages.


--------
Examples
--------

Compare source pkgs in two local repos::

    dnf repodiff --repofrompath=o,/tmp/repo-old --repofrompath=n,/tmp/repo-new --repo-old=o --repo-new=n

Compare x86_64 compat. binary pkgs in two remote repos, and two local one::

    dnf repodiff --repofrompath=o,http://example.com/repo-old --repofrompath=n,http://example.com/repo-new --repo-old=o --repo-new=n --archlist=x86_64

Compare x86_64 compat. binary pkgs, but also compare architecture::

    dnf repodiff --repofrompath=o,http://example.com/repo-old --repofrompath=n,http://example.com/repo-new --repo-old=o --repo-new=n --archlist=x86_64 --compare-arch
