[pbs-devel] [PATCH proxmox-backup 0/2] debug cli: improve output, optionally compare file content for `diff archive`

[Lukas Wagner]

This patch series contains a few improvements for the `diff archive` tool,
mainly based on Wolfgang's suggestions.

First, the output of is now much more detailed and shows
some relevant file attributes, including what has changed between
snapshots. Changed attributes are highlighted by a "*".

For instance:

$ proxmox-backup-debug diff archive ...
A  f   644  10045  10000     0 B  2022-11-28 13:44:51  add.txt
M  f   644  10045  10000     6 B *2022-11-28 13:45:05  content.txt
D  f   644  10045  10000     0 B  2022-11-28 13:17:09  deleted.txt
M  f   644  10045    *29     0 B  2022-11-28 13:16:20  gid.txt
M  f  *777  10045  10000     0 B  2022-11-28 13:42:47  mode.txt
M  f   644  10045  10000     0 B *2022-11-28 13:44:33  mtime.txt
M  f   644  10045  10000    *7 B *2022-11-28 13:44:59 *size.txt
M  f   644 *64045  10000     0 B  2022-11-28 13:16:18  uid.txt
M *f   644  10045  10000    10 B  2022-11-28 13:44:59  type.txt

The second commit introduces the possiblity to pass
the --compare-content flag to the tool. If the flag is passed,
the tool will compare the file content instead of relying on mtime
alone to detect modifications.
