This is what I ended up doing:<br/>1. Clone the repo into ./repo (or adjust as desired).<br/>2. export GIT_DIR=repo/.git<br/>3. extract the tarball to ./tarball (or adjust as desired)<br/>4. cd tarball<br/>5. git log --reverse --format=&#34;%H %ai&#34; --after=2016/03/01 --before 2016/06/30 | while read HASH DATE; do echo -n &#34;$HASH $DATE &#34;; git diff --name-only --diff-filter=M $HASH | wc -l; done | tee /tmp/diff_files # adjust date ranges as needed.

Yes, this is a CLI tool, but can and will be wrapped using LUCI, I&#39;m sure.<br/><br/>This is a significant improvement over downloading a generic sysupgrade image for your device, which simply discards any additional packages you may have installed.<br/><br/>Before OWUT, the cli tool to use was AUC, the Attended Upgrade Client, which uses the same server infrastructure, I believe. 2025-04-15T23:18:49Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrx4jylzue9kmu4c83z39d6gsmd6n64mn7zh70yn40mgqd9w9nq4gzypzndl3w4mrfsc774xcwnfya0ddwtc48v73xjsa6wfz09m2llx3yjedq0v4 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswxl0aah8xmgp4nfa4ru8jf4fup7qe4v0k8epmuhurztm8ddpxuwsh879q0'>nevent1q…79q0</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>pv -d $PID will watch all file descriptors that the process has open, or pv -d $PID:$FD will watch only the specified one. 2024-10-21T04:39:56Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsfwaftmqzg3m5y9j7t8vk6hgwfjcu8qx7xmls6lt98hzdcquk83aszypzndl3w4mrfsc774xcwnfya0ddwtc48v73xjsa6wfz09m2llx3yj76zp9n In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsw5saf23vpgaypm9hcsrunva8w74wqggm7u7jppdse3qcesnklldqd3eh4c'>nevent1q…eh4c</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>another fun proc feature enables pv (pipeviewer) to monitor progress on file handles of an existing process. 2024-10-21T03:58:12Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs2e5epw0x7gqquarqmq06pusggs07522j0dpqwzpmc8l9zqy4erygzypzndl3w4mrfsc774xcwnfya0ddwtc48v73xjsa6wfz09m2llx3yjrgtcyr In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs02jdn4k8vj3tkqqhhthw09343ku208ulvkky2l5qxgje525zxv6q4pcs74'>nevent1q…cs74</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>no incentive to fix it PROPERLY.
