+# deblob-main - prepare a linux-libre tarball out of a non-libre Linux
+# tarball. It expects the Linux release (mver, say 3.0) as the first
+# argument, the libre sub-release (extra) as the second optional
# argument, and the patch release (sver, say .13) as an optional third
# argument. mver and sver are pasted together to form kver.
# yourself, because xdelta (unlike patches) is not reversible: the
# removed bits are not present in it at all.
+# xdelta version 3 uses different command line syntax, and it switched
+# to the more standardized but less efficient vcdiff file format.
+# This script will also produce a vcdiff file if xdelta3 is present,
+# and it expects the xdelta program to use the version 1 syntax.
+
# To enable you to check the differences between the tarballs, a patch
# file is generated in linux-$kver-libre$extra.patch. This patch file
# contains the non-Free blobs, even though in reversed form, so its
# distribution is discouraged.
+# The tar files and binary deltas are finally compressed with bzip2,
+# and optionally with lzip and xz too, if the compressors are
+# available.
+
# At the end, the script attempts to generate a digital signature for
# the newly-created tarball. This is the last thing the script does,
# so interrupting it at that point to skip the signing won't fail to
