| This directory contains an extensively modified version of Colin Percival's | |
| bsdiff, available in its original form from: | |
| http://www.daemonology.net/bsdiff/ | |
| The basic principles of operation are best understood by reading Colin's | |
| unpublised paper: | |
| Colin Percival, Naive differences of executable code, http://www.daemonology.net/bsdiff/, 200 | |
| The copy on this directory so extensively modified that the binary format is | |
| incompatible with the original and it cannot be compiled outside the Chromium | |
| source tree or the Courgette project. | |
| List of changes made to original code: | |
| - wrapped functions in 'courgette' namespace | |
| - renamed .c files to .cc | |
| - added bsdiff.h header file | |
| - changed the code to use streams.h from courgette | |
| - changed the encoding of numbers to use the 'varint' encoding | |
| - reformatted code to be closer to Google coding standards | |
| - renamed variables | |
| - added comments |
