Delta embeds full file names #259

Closed mwisnicki closed 3 years ago

Is it possible to produce delta without embedding paths?

The -A flag may be used to set application-specific data in the VCDIFF header (you may view with xdelta3 printhdr). By default, the application-specific data includes the source and input filenames, as well as descriptors to help with ExternalCompression. You can disable the application header with -A=.
