+Usage: nix-generate-patches NAR-DIR PATCH-DIR PATCH-URI OLD-MANIFEST NEW-MANIFEST
+
+This command generates binary patches between NAR files listed in
+OLD-MANIFEST and NEW-MANIFEST.  The patches are written to the
+directory PATCH-DIR, and the prefix PATCH-URI is used to generate URIs
+for the patches.  The patches are added to NEW-MANIFEST.  All NARs are
+required to exist in NAR-DIR.  Patches are generated between
+succeeding versions of packages with the same name.
