Oh .. I misunderstood what you are after. If you are dealing with CentOS RPMs .. you can just look at git.centos.org: For example .. here is one CentOS Linux 7 rpm. I'll pick 389-ds-base. https://git.centos.org/ Click into search and type 389-ds-base .. pick rpms/389-ds-base Click on Branches on the left tabs .. In this example, I'll pick c7 Now if you click on the left commits tab. you will see each c7 rpm import. if you click on the six digit number, for example, e52775 for the current latest "import 389-ds-base-1.3.10.1-9.el7_8". The result is every diff of every change for the rpm. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
