This utility is a helper for developers wanting to upload a patch for an existing distribution. The utility checks the folder containing the new version and compares every file with another folder, a previous version. Then copies all new and modified files to a third folder.
Instructions:
Upon opening the program:
- Enter the 1st folder path (old version).
- Enter the 2nd folder path (new version).
- Enter the Destination folder path (where the divergent files will be copied).
- Click the Generate Patch button!
The process will take some time as it copies each needed file, but just in case leave it alone for a couple minutes.
Also I advice against using root folders (i.e. C:\) because that will make the tool to work with the entire drive!
