# Detailed usage information at the end of the file
#
# TODO/IDEAS: - option to call external pre-processing codes
#
# version 1.3.4:
#    - Enhancement: if --flatten option is used, and no bbl file is included in the version management, then latexdiff-vc will try to run bibtex to generate the bbl file. Implements the suggestion of PR #127 (contributed by github user cousteaulecommandant )
#    - Efficiency boost: use -draftmode for non-interactive preliminary runs of latex (idea from #
#    - bug fix: minor fix for --only-changed that makes detection of changed pages more reliable [ PR #297 contributed by user nelijuc ]
#
# version 1.3.2:
#    - bug fix: when setting config variables with the command lines it is now possible to use quotes to includes spaces in the value, e.g. -c LATEX="pdflatex --shell-escape"
#    - bug fix: --only-changes is not compatible with graphics markup. --graphics-markup=none is now set automatically
#    - when --pdf or --postscript is select, then replace tildes in version names with underscores in output file (e.g. diffHEAD_1 instead of diff HEAD~1. This is necessary because pdflatex strips ~n strings at the end of the filename, when generating output file names

# version 1.3.1:
#    - bug fix, import File::Path explicitly as otherwise mkpath is not found
# version 1.3.0 ((7 October 2018)
#    - option --only-changes with hyperref will suppress hyperrefs (pull request jprotze)_
#    - option --only-changes now moves (rather than copies) file with only changes 
# version 1.2.1 (22 June 2017):
#    - update: use qpdf (instead of pdftk) to select particular pages of output (pull request #102 submitted by Tom Scogland via github). This was necessary because pdftk is being deprecated. pdftk is still used as a fall-back
#    - bug fix: --hg option was not recognised (partially fixes github issue #93 )
#    - wrap passed-through options to latexdiff in quotation marks (fix github issue #58 )
#    - program names for latexdiff, latex, dvips, bibtex configurable (fixes issue #40)
#
# version 1.2.0:
#    - deprecation fix: left brace in RegEx now needs to be escaped
#
# version 1.1.1:
#    - better detection of RCS system 
#    - undocumented option --debug/--nodebug to override default setting for debug mode (Default: 0)#
#    - bug fix: --flatten option combined with --pdf caused confusion of old and new file
#
# version 1.1.0:
#
#      - with option --flatten and version control option, checkout the whole tree into a temporary directory
#        (use svn info + checkout ; git archive )
#       - add option --only-changes to output only changed pages (in combination with --ps or --pdf option)
# version 1.0.4:
#	- [ Patch #3486 contributed by cbarbu] add additional compilation for styles using chbar + avoid pdf/postscripts repeat in the code
# version 1.0.3: Bug fix: replace use of system('cp...') with File::Copy::copy (Patch contributed by D. Bremner)
#                 Quotes around system call file arguments to allow filenames with spaces (Patch contributed by ssteve)
# version 1.0.2: - option --so to use latexdiff-so
# version 1.0.1 (change version numbering to match that of latexdiff)
#   - Option --fast to use latexdiff-fast, 
#   - git support (thanks to Bjorn Magnus Mathisen, Santi Béjar, Pietro Battiston and Stefan Alfredson for patches) - UNTESTED
# version 0.25:
#   - bbl is allowed as alternative extension (instead of .tex)
# version 0.26a
#   - Bug fix: it copes now correctly with the possibility that there are no changes between current
#         and archived version

=head1 NAME

latexdiff-vc - wrapper script that calls latexdiff for different versions of a file under version management (CVS, RCS or SVN)

=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<latexdiff-vc> [ F<latexdiff-options> ] [ F<latexdiff-vc-options> ]  B<-r> [F<rev1>] [B<-r> F<rev2>]  F<file1.tex> [ F<file2.tex> ...]

 or

B<latexdiff-vc> [ F<latexdiff-options> ]  [ F<latexdiff-vc-options> ][ B<--postscript> | B<--pdf> ]  F<old.tex> F<new.tex>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

I<latexdiff-vc> is a wrapper script that applies I<latexdiff> to a
file, or multiple files under version control (git, subversion (SVN), mercurial (hg), CVS, RCS), and optionally runs the
sequence of C<latex> and C<dvips> or C<pdflatex> commands necessary to
produce pdf or postscript output of the difference tex file(s). It can
also be applied to a pair of files to automatise the generation of difference
file in postscript or pdf format.

=head1 OPTIONS

=over 4

=item B<--rcs>, B<--svn>, B<--cvs>, B<--git> or B<--hg>

Set the version control system used. 
If no version system is specified, latexdiff-vc will venture a guess.

latexdiff-cvs, latexdiff-rcs etc are variants of latexdiff-vc which default to 
the respective versioning system. However, this default can still be overridden using the options above.

Note that hg needs to support the C<--root> option (version >= 2.9)

=item B<-r>, B<-r> F<rev> or B<--revision>, B<--revision=>F<rev>

Choose revision (under RCS, CVS, SVN, GIT or HG). One or two B<-r> options can be
specified, and they result in different behaviour:

=over 4

=item B<latexdiff-vc> -r F<file.tex> ...

compares F<file.tex> with the most recently checked-in version checked.

=item B<latexdiff-vc> -r F<rev1> F<file.tex> ...

compares F<file.tex> with revision F<rev1>.

=item B<latexdiff-vc> -r F<rev1> -r F<rev2> F<file.tex> ...

compares revisions F<rev1> and F<rev2> of F<file.tex>.

Multiple files can be specified for all of the above options. All files must have the
extensions C<.tex>, C<.bbl>, or C<.flt>, though.

=item B<latexdiff-vc>  F<old.tex> F<new.tex>

compares two files.

=back

The name of the difference file is generated automatically and
reported to stdout.

=item B<-d> or B<--dir>  B<-d> F<path> or B<--dir=>F<path>

Rather than appending the string C<diff> and optionally the version
numbers given to the output-file, this will prepend a directory name C<diff> 
to the
original filename, creating the directory and sub-directories should they not exist already.  This is particularly useful in order to clone a
complete directory hierarchy.  Optionally, a pathname F<path> can be specified, which is prepended instead of C<diff>.

=item B<--flatten,--flatten=keep-intermediate>

If combined with C<--git>, C<--svn> or C<--hg> option or the corresponding modes, check out the revisions to compare in a separate temporary directory, and then pass on option C<--flatten> to latexdiff. The directory in which C<latexdiff-vc> is invoked defines the subtree which will be checked out.
Note that if additional files are needed which are not included in the flatten procedure (package files, included graphics), they need to be accessible in the current directory. If you use bibtex, it is recommended to include the C<.bbl> file in the version management. From latexdiff-vc >=1.3.4  there is an attempt to create the C<.bbl> file by running bibtex in the retrieved subdirectories; note that the bibtex is run in the temporary subdirectories so any .bib or .bst files either need to be under version management, or in the global search paths for bibtex (shell environment variables C<BIBINPUTS> and C<BSTINPUTS>). 

The generic usage of this function is : C<latexdiff-vc --flatten -r rev1 [-r rev2] master.tex> where master.tex is the project file containing the highest level of includes etc.

With C<--flatten=keep-intermediate>, the intermediate revision snapshots are kept in the current directory (Default is to store them in a temporary directory and delete them after generating the diff file.)


=item B<--only-changes>

Post-process the output such that only pages with changes on them are displayed. This requires the use of subtype ZLABEL 
in latexdiff, which will be set automatically, but any manually set -s option will be overruled (also requires zref package to 
be installed). This option also disables internal links (as implemented by hyperref package) and graphics markup.
(note that this option must be combined with --ps or --pdf to make sense)

=item B<--force>

Overwrite existing diff files without asking for confirmation. Default 
behaviour is to ask for confirmation before overwriting an existing difference
file.

=item B<--run>

run latex command on diff file after generation of diff file.

=item B<--dvi>

run latex and dvixxx commands after generation of diff file.

=item B<-c configfile>
=item B<--config var1=val1,var2=val2,...> or B<-c var1=val1,..>

Set configuration variables for latexdiff and latexdiff-vc.  The option can be repeated to set different
variables (as an alternative to the comma-separated list).
Available variables for latexdiff-vc:

=over 8

=item C<LATEXDIFF> latexdiff command (e.g. latexdiff-fast, latexdiff-so). This command should support the options C<-draftmode> and C<-interaction=batchmode>

=item C<LATEX> latex command (e.g. pdflatex, lualatex)

=item C<DVI2>  Command for conversion of dvi file (e.g. dvips, dvipdf)

=item C<BIBTEX> Command replacing bibtex

=back

All other config variables are passed to latexdiff. Explicitly set configuration changes always override implicit
changes by the following shortcut options B<--fast>, B<--so>, B<--ps> and B<--pdf>. 

=item B<--fast> or B<--so>

Use C<latexdiff-fast> or C<latexdiff-so>, respectively (instead of C<latexdiff>).

=item B<--ps> or B<--postscript>

Generate postscript output from difference file.  This will run the
sequence C<latex; latex; dvips> on the difference file (do not use
this option in the rare cases, where three C<latex> commands are
required if you care about correct referencing).  If the difference
file contains a C<\bibliography> tag, run the sequence C<latex;
bibtex; latex; latex; dvips>.

=item B<--pdf>

Generate pdf output from difference file using C<pdflatex>. This will
run the sequence C<pdflatex; pdflatex> on the difference file, or
C<pdflatex; bibtex; pdflatex; pdflatex> for files requiring bibtex.
Note that this is not just a shortcut for setting configuration variable but also triggers 
some special behaviour.


=item B<--show-config>

Show values of configuration variables.

=item B<--help> or B<-h>

Show help text

=item B<--version>

Show version number

=back

All other options are passed on to C<latexdiff>.  Note that it is not always easy for latexdiff to correctly assign arguments to options when short form (single letter) options are used so it is recommended to use long-form options.

=head1 PORTABILITY

I<latexdiff-vc> uses external commands and is therefore dependent on the system architecture; it has been
tested mainly on Unix-like systems. It also requires a version control
system and latex to be installed on the system to make use of all features.  Modules from Perl 5.8
or higher are required.

=head1 BUG REPORTING

Please submit bug reports using the issue tracker of the github repository page I<https://github.com/ftilmann/latexdiff.git>, 
or send them to I<tilmann -- AT -- gfz-potsdam.de>.  Include the version number of I<latexdiff-vc>
(option C<--version>).
