I came across the sd3 extension today, and have absolutly no clue as to what it is. It seems to be some sort of compression, but I could be totally wrong on that. I Googled, but found nothing. Anyone here know?

By analyzing the difference between files
sdelta3 outputs tiny highly compressible patches.
Patches translate source tarballs into newer
or older versions or similar sources such as:
mozilla into firefox or firefox into mozilla.

sdelta is honed to the characteristics of source tarballs.
For deltas of binary files try: bdelta and edelta.

Hope this helps! :guitar::lolflag::lolflag::lolflag::lolflag::lolfl ag::lolflag::guitar:
