Patch package

Sometimes a solution needs a fix deployed and you may like to deploy a single item rather than redeploying the entire solution.

A patch package is a simplified version of a package to which individual items can be added.

A patch package has fewer options than the standard package. It does not include deployment configuration, export options, and overview or content settings.

No associated items are included when exporting a patch package; only the items specifically added to the patch package are exported.
