NAME
       gifdiff - compares GIF images

SYNOPSIS
       gifdiff [options] GIF-file-1 GIF-file-2

DESCRIPTION
       gifdiff compares two GIF files and determines if they appear identical.
       Differences that don't affect appearance (like colormap ordering or how
       much an animation is optimized) are not reported.

       gifdiff prints details of any differences it finds. If the GIFs are the
       same, it prints nothing. It exits with status 0 if there were  no  dif‐
       ferences, 1 if there were some differences, and 2 if there was trouble.

OPTIONS
       --brief, -q
	    Report  only  whether the GIFs differ, not the details of the dif‐
	    ferences.

       --ignore-redundancy, -w
	    Do not report differences  in  the	numbers	 of  redundant	frames
	    (frames which do not change the displayed image).

       --help
	    Print usage information and exit.

       --version
	    Print the version number and some quickie warranty information and
	    exit.
