Xdelta is a command line tool for delta encoding, which stores or transmits the difference (deltas) between sequential data, instead of entire files. This is similar to diff and patch, except diff computes and shows the difference between two complete files, while patch is primarily designed for human-readable text files; Xdelta is designed for binary files and does not generate human readable output.
