# Generate an unified diff of the list of microcodes included in the
# latest two Intel-supplied Microcode packs (microcode-<date>.dat)
#
# Use this to locate updated/removed/added microcodes.  Further manual
# analysis is necessary to identify the deletion of recently-added
# or recently-updated microcode, and the addition of previously-deleted
# microcode (often with a version downgrade).
#
# Run this from the directory with the Intel microcode packs.
