The code is mostly derived from cx_bsdiff (written by Anthony Tuininga, http://cx-bsdiff.sourceforge.net/).
The cx_bsdiff code in turn was derived from bsdiff, the standalone utility produced for BSD which can be found at http://www.daemonology.net/bsdiff.
In addition to the two functions (diff and patch) cx_bsdiff provides, the bsdiff4 package includes:
- an interface to the BSDIFF4-format
- command line interfaces: bsdiff4 and bspatch4
- tests
