I got to manage quite old Umbraco cloud sites (ver. 7.15.7) and need to upgrade minor versions to latest. It has development and live environments and under development environment I can see multiple changes, most indentified as done by Umbraco some by other users. The changes ranges from dll files, config files (among them web.config), file deletions, script changes and deploy file changes. Want to know these things:
Can I discard changes which are marked as " x changes ready for deployment"?
Is it possible to compare differences between files?
What kind of files are transfered when I click on "Deploy changes to Live"?
If web.config was modified, is there risk to override Live environment's configurations with Development's?
Well you probally can rollback then. If you use git you can just rollback to a certain commit and then push it back to the cloud and then see what happends

Hi Vilius,
So minor changes will be rolled out automatically by Umbraco, Just do a good test on development. The steps we are follow.
If it all seems fine it is pretty safe to deploy the changes.
PS: Umbraco cloud will not overwrite your web.config but they can do some changes to the web.config.
If you want to be sure check local web.config and development web.config and if your settings are there you're probally fine.
From what I got from the support, automatic changes are done only from 8th version. So I will need to do it manually.
Well, part of the issue for me is that I can't verify 100% if everything is alright. That's why I would love to drop the changes if possible.
Well you probally can rollback then. If you use git you can just rollback to a certain commit and then push it back to the cloud and then see what happends
