NAME

       fix_include - Update the source code with iwyu output

SYNOPSIS

       fix_include [options] [filename] ... < <output from include-what-you-use script> OR fix_include -s [other
       options] <filename> ...

DESCRIPTION

       fix_include reads the output from the include-what-you-use script on stdin -- run  with  --v=1  (default)
       verbose  or  above  -- and, unless --sort_only or --dry_run is specified, modifies the files mentioned in
       the output, removing  their  old  #include  lines  and  replacing  them  with  the  lines  given  by  the
       include_what_you_use script.  It also sorts the #include and forward-declare lines.

       Only  writable  files  (those  opened for p4 edit) are modified (unless --checkout_command is specified).
       All files mentioned in the include-what-you-use script are modified, unless filenames  are  specified  on
       the commandline, in which case only those files are modified.

       The  exit  code  is  the  number  of files that were modified (or that would be modified if --dry_run was
       specified) unless that number exceeds 100, in which case 100 is returned.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       -b, --blank_lines
              Put a blank line between primary header file and C/C++ system #includes, and  another  blank  line
              between system #includes and google #includes [default]

       --noblank_lines

       --comments
              Put comments after the #include lines

       --nocomments

       --safe_headers
              Do not remove unused #includes/fwd-declares from header files; just add new ones [default]

       --nosafe_headers

       -s, --sort_only
              Just sort #includes of files listed on cmdline; do not add or remove any #includes

       -n, --dry_run
              Do not actually edit any files; just print diffs.  Return code is 0 if no changes are needed, else
              min(the number of files that would be modified, 100)

       --ignore_re=IGNORE_RE
              fix_includes.py will skip editing any file whose name matches this regular expression.

       --checkout_command=CHECKOUT_COMMAND
              A command, such as "p4 edit", to run on all the nonwriteable files  before  modifying  them.   The
              filenames  will be appended to the command after a space.  The command will not be run on any file
              that does not need to change.

       --create_cl_if_possible
              If --checkout_command is "p4|g4|v4 edit" and all files to be modified needed to  be  checked  out,
              then create a CL containing those files.

       --nocreate_cl_if_possible

       --append_to_cl=APPEND_TO_CL
              If provided, with a checkout_command, add files that need fixing to the specified existing CL.

       --separate_project_includes=SEPARATE_PROJECT_INCLUDES
              Sort  #includes  for current project separately from all other #includes.  This flag specifies the
              root directory of the current project. If the value is "<tld>",  #includes  that  share  the  same
              top-level  directory  are  assumed to be in the same project.  If not specified, project #includes
              will be sorted with other non-system #includes.

       --invoking_command_line=INVOKING_COMMAND_LINE
              Internal flag used by iwyu.py, It should be the command line used to invoke iwyu.py

       -m, --keep_iwyu_namespace_format
              Keep forward-declaration namespaces in IWYU format, eg. namespace n1 { namespace n2 { class c1;  }
              }. Do not convert to "normalized" Google format: namespace n1 {\nnamespace n2 {\n class c1;\n}\n}.

       --nokeep_iwyu_namespace_format
