|
<para>The command <command>nix-generate-patches</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.</para>
