The o/p of the above are lines of the form:
Files directory1/file1 and directory2/file1 differ
You can use awk/perl/anything to separate out the filenames.

Then upload the actual diff output and use patch(1). This will be easier to
do - like:
diff -Naur directory1 directory2 > files.diff
and after uploading, you can use
patch -p0 < files.diff
Use the correct -p option to patch.
