Description

Doing this manually is error-prone and time consuming.

make compare should compare two sites and report at least:

  • Differences in PHP version
    • Seeing a diff of tiki-check.php output would be fantastic as well to see anything risky if the two Tikis are on different servers.
  • Differences in the data
    • in database (presumably text diff of mysqldump)
    • files on disk outside web area)
  • Differences in the code base


So one could iteratively manually cherry-pick merge stuff from dev/staging to production, and re-run diff until there is nothing else one cares to keep. And then, use the "copy prod to dev" script.

This is useful for Configuration Management for Tiki Projects
