Create Patch between URLs

Use Query|Create Patch between URLs to create a 'Unidiff' patch between two arbitrary URLs. See Create Patch for more details on patches. Compare Repository Directories is the more visual and convenient version of this command.

The patch is generated from one Repository and contains the difference between From and To. The patch will be written to the local Output File.

By default, this command takes the ancestry into account. This means, that it does not simply calculate (and print out) the difference between two files which have the same path, but also checks if both files are actually related. You can decide to switch this behaviour off by selecting Ignore ancestry on the Advanced page. For details regarding the other Advanced options, refer to Create Patch.
