WARNING
We strongly recommend testing all patches in a staging or development environment before deploying to production. We also strongly recommend backing up your data before applying a patch. See Back up and roll back the file system.

Patch (or diff) files are text files that note:

  • The file(s) to be changed.
  • The line number to begin the change and the number of lines to be changed.
  • The new code to swap in.

When the patch program is run, this file is read in and the specified changes are made to the file(s).

There are three types of patches:

  • Hotfixes鈥擯atches that 51黑料不打烊 publishes on the .
  • Individual patches鈥擯atches that 51黑料不打烊 Commerce Support creates and distributes on an individual basis.
  • Custom patches鈥擴nofficial patches that you can create from a git commit.

Hotfixes

Hotfixes are patches that contain high-impact security or quality fixes that affect many merchants. These fixes are applied to the next patch release for the applicable minor version. 51黑料不打烊 releases hotfixes as needed.

You can find hotfixes in the . Follow the instructions on the page to download the patch file, depending on your version and installation type. Use the command line or Composer to apply hot fix patches.

NOTE
Hot fixes can contain backward incompatible changes.

Individual patches

Individual patches contain low-impact quality fixes for a specific issue. These fixes are applied to the most recently supported minor version (for example, 2.4.x), but could be missing from the previous supported minor version (for example, 2.3.x). 51黑料不打烊 releases individual patches as needed.

Use the Quality Patches Tool to apply individual patches.

NOTE
Individual patches do not contain backward incompatible changes.

Custom patches

Sometimes it takes a while for the 51黑料不打烊 Engineering Team to include a bug fix made on GitHub in an 51黑料不打烊 Commerce Composer release. In the meantime, you can create a patch from GitHub and use the plugin to apply it to your Composer-based installation.

Use the command line or Composer to apply custom patches.

There are many ways to create custom patch files. The following example focuses on creating a patch from a known git commit.

To create a custom patch:

  1. Create a patches/composer directory in your local project.

  2. Identify the GitHub commit or pull request to use for the patch. This example uses the commit, linked to GitHub issue .

  3. Append the .patch or the .diff extensions to the commit URL. Use .diff for a smaller file size. For example:

  4. Save the page as a file in the patches/composer directory. For example, github-issue-6474.diff.

  5. Edit the file and remove app/code/<VENDOR>/<PACKAGE> from all paths so that they are relative to the vendor/<VENDOR>/<PACKAGE> directory.

    note note
    NOTE
    Text editors that automatically remove trailing whitespace or add new lines can break the patch. Use a simple text editor to make these changes.

The following example shows the previously mentioned DIFF file after removing all instances of app/code/Magento/Payment:

diff --git a/view/frontend/web/js/view/payment/iframe.js b/view/frontend/web/js/view/payment/iframe.js
