BOMERGE(1M)         RISC/os Reference Manual          BOMERGE(1M)



NAME
     bomerge - merge bomfiles

SYNTAX
     bomerge file ...

DESCRIPTION
     bomerge merges the named bomefiles (see comply(1M)) into a
     single bomfile, which is written onto standard out.

     bomerge deletes duplicate entries and sorts the results. Due
     to the sorting, comments in the bomfiles are gathered to the
     beginning of the resulting bomfile. This allows source con-
     trol header information to be collected conveniently, though
     context-sensitive comments will no longer precede the lines
     they are associated with.

     bomerge also checks for duplicate filenames with conflicting
     bom information (i.e., differing mode, owner, group, link
     count, and link target specifications). When such conflicts
     are detected, bomerge will write only those lines involved
     on the standard output, and exits with a status of 1; if no
     conflicts are found, bomerge will exit with a status of 0.
