I am at the point of rpmconf -a during an upgrade from 1.4 to 1.5. Not 
realizing I could not go back I have defaulted through each listing. Now 
there seems to be no way to get back to see the differences.

The first file I hit D on but saw no way to make use of the diff so even 
had I not defaulted I dont see how Id have been able to carry the 
changes over. It seems you have two options. Keep or destroy.

There were differences in the NOCPulse.ini and /etc/cobbler/settings files.

Running rpmconf -a again produces no output and I saw neither before nor 
after running this command an rpmnew or rpmsave file for either of those 
listed above.

Is there a way to get back to the state where I can see the difference 
so I can manually copy each line over? Also is there way to make use of 
this diff file other than a copy/paste, scroll, copy/paste, etc?
