• Review files that need maintenance in interactive mode:
  pacdiff
• Use sudo and sudoedit to remove and merge files:
  pacdiff --sudo
• Review files needing maintenance, creating `.bak`ups of the original if you `(O)verwrite`:
  pacdiff --sudo --backup
• Use a specific editor to view and merge configuration files (default is `vim -d`):
  DIFFPROG=editor pacdiff
• Scan for configuration files with `locate` instead of using pacman database:
  pacdiff --locate

  pacdiff --help
