1.3.5 change files only?

Is there to be a release of 1.3.5 with changed files only? as I have a hell of a lot og customisation and really dont want to go through every file comparing with the 1.3.0.2 origional, then comparing with the customised files to see how much work is involved in upgrading before I even start cloning my server, and upgrading the copy ready to transfer over, I have only just had to start again to get away from 1.2.x in favour of 1.3.0.x, which yes was a very worthwile move however I simply dont have the time to go through it all again, only to find out 1.4 is released a day later and I have to start again

If you have used the override system, you can identfy most fo the potential clashes by comparing the files that you are using as over-rides with the the list of changed files in the releases docs folder.

If you wish to feel a little more secure that you haven't misread the changed files, get a copy of winmerge at http://winmerge.sourceforge.net/downloads.php, Enter the site in one side and a clean 1.3.5 copy on the other and let the program work for you.

Re: 1.3.5 change files only?

Every release includes a changelog file:

zen-cart-v1.3.5-full-fileset-09042006\docs\changelog-v1-3-5.html

Very helpful if you want to cut to the chase and not go thru a complete file compare for the release.

But you will still want a file compare utility so you can properly examine and merge your modifications.
