$ man xdelta

| DESCRIPTION
|        XDelta  provides  the ability to generate deltas between a
|        pair of files and later apply those deltas.   It  operates
|        similar  to  the  diff  and  patch  commands, but works on
|        binary files and does not produce a human readable output.
|        [...]
