Topic: Upgrading 1.3.4 to 1.4.2, list of changes available?

Hopefully this is the correct place for this since it deals with v1.4

Since we made some changes to the 1.3.4 code like the layout and colors and other stuff, is there a list of what's really changed since 1.3.4
(or maybe 1.3.5 or 1.3.6).
This so we're able not to install the files with no changes in it that may have our code changes in them thus making the time for the upgrade a lot less.
Better yet, not a full reinstall (since you really replace all web-files) just an uprgade that has the files that has changes in it.

Pleeease let there be a list/upgrade tongue

Compare the files with WinMerge, apply changes and upgrade Database to the newest version.

thx but there are 1651 files, can it handle all at the same time? or it's gonna take a while tongue

....but what if I'm using Linux?
(I'll try through wine but I'd doubt it'll work)

UPDATE:

Just found a Linux alternative: http://meldmerge.org/

I hate when people assume everyone uses Windows. There's Mac, Linux, BSD...

Btw, most Linux distros have the diff command to compare files and save the changes into files, and the patch command to merge those files back into other files. The problem is if you're not comfortable with the command line. But you can usually find graphical alternatives in your distro's software repositories.
