When will the patcher be updated so we don't need to download 25 gigabytes every time we update?
Tyler Witkin · Community Manager

I encourage you to check out Austin's Around the Verse last week, because Mike Pickett goes into detail on some of the work he's been doing for incremental patching, also known as delta patching. And it is heavily in development, and we want it just as bad. We struggle with the same issue when we are working internally. Developers need builds, sometimes multiple per day. Some of these raw builds can be 60, 70 gigs, even larger. And the ability to incrementally patch would be amazing for us as well. And so it is a high priority, and we're looking forward to getting it out there. He kind of touches on the subject, but what we'll do is, when Mike Pickett is finished with his project, and all else who are involved, we'll test it internally, we'll use it internally, and then we'll roll it out to you guys.
