<refsection><title>Description</title>
<para>The command <command>nix-generate-patches</command> generates
binary patches between NAR files listed in OLD-MANIFEST and NEW-MANIFEST.
The patches are written to the directory PATCH-DIR, and the prefix
PATCH-URI is used to generate URIs for the patches. The patches are
added to NEW-MANIFEST. All NARs are required to exist in NAR-DIR.
Patches are generated between succeeding versions of packages with
the same name.</para>
