Issue
- We have two hotfixes and we would like to know the difference between them
- How can we check the common and different fixes within those hotfixes?
Environment
- Liferay Portal 6.2
- Liferay DXP 7.0+
Resolution
- Run a diff tool against the fixpack_documentation.xml files in those hotfixes and check the <fixed-issues> part
- Or use Patching Tool:
- Get a Patching tool
- Put the first hotfix in the 'Patches' folder
- Run the patching tool's
store add 1 command, this will create a folder called '1' with the content of the hotfix
- Delete the hotfix from the 'Patches' folder
- Put the second hotfix in the 'Patches' folder
- Run the patching tool's
store add 2 command, this will create a folder called '2' with the content of that hotfix
- Then run the patching tool's
diff fixed-issues 1 2 command and it will list all the fixes that are common and different in those hotfixes
