# jetring-gen(1)

generates changesets for changes between two keyrings

## NAME

jetring-gen - generates changesets for changes between two keyrings

## SYNOPSIS

**jetring-gen oldring.gpg newring.gpg \[comment\]**

## DESCRIPTION

If you have two keyrings, one being an old version of the other, this command can generate a sequence of changesets that, when applied to the old keyring with jetring-apply, should generate the new keyring.

The optional comment parameter is a comment to put in each changeset.

The names of the generated changesets will be output to stdout.
