Options:
-h, --help show this message
FILE the target to compared against
Compare STDIN to FILE, and only write to FILE if STDIN content
differs from FILE content.
Examples:
Create a new file, don't update it afterwards, and update it
as the content changes:
$ echo aaa | ifnew new-file
$ stat --print='%y' new-file
# timestamp 1
$ echo aaa | ifnew new-file
$ stat --print='%y' new-file
# timestamp 1
$ echo bbb | ifnew new-file
$ stat --print='%y' new-file
# timestamp 2
Only change file when content changes in a Makefile:
i18.cfg: ALWAYS
gen-cfg | ifnew $@
po4a $@
