NAME

       mergechanges - merge multiple changes files

SYNOPSIS

       mergechanges [-f] file1 file2 [file...]

DESCRIPTION

       mergechanges  merges  two  or  more  .changes files, merging the Architecture, Description and Files (and
       Checksums-*, if present) fields of the two.  There are checks made to ensure that the changes  files  are
       from the same source package and version and use the same changes file Format.  The first changes file is
       used as the basis and the information from the later ones is merged into it.

       The output is normally written to stdout.   If  the  -f  option  is  given,  the  output  is  written  to
       package_version_multi.changes instead, in the same directory as the first changes file listed.
