i really don't want to start copying random files
around when there are conflicts.

i don't care about most of them and don't want to spend the time
downloading.

you could use this script though.

g% cat /bin/updiff
#!/bin/rc

rfork e

path = (/bin/)

d = /n/sources/plan9

if(! test -e $d) 9fs sources

for(i in $*){
	echo '=====' $i '====='
	ls -lmd $i
	switch($i){
	case /*
		diff -n $d/$i $i 
	case *
		i = `{cleanname -d `{pwd} $i}
		diff  -n $d/$i $i
	}
}
g% cd /sys/src/cmd
g% updiff tar.c
