zipmerge [-DhIiSsV] target-zip source-zip [source-zip ...]

DESCRIPTION

zipmerge merges the source zip archives source-zip into the target zip archive target-zip. By default, files in the source zip archives overwrite existing files of the same name in the target zip archive.

Supported options:

-D: Ignore directory components in file name comparisons. This option is slow for archives with many files.
-h: Display a short help message and exit.
-I: Ignore case in file name comparisons This option is slow for archives with many files.
-i: Ask before overwriting files. See also -s.
-S: Do not overwrite files that have the same size and CRC32 in both the source and target archives.
-s: When -i is given, do not before overwriting files that have the same size and CRC32.
-V: Display version information and exit.

EXIT STATUS

zipmerge exits 0 on success and >1 if an error occurred.

CAVEATS

zipmerge uses one open file descriptor per zip archive. If you need to merge a lot of zip archives, check your shell's file descriptor ulimit and either increase it or run zipmerge multiple times with e.g. 1000 source zip archives each time.
