Yes - I want to store a series of XML diffs/patches and be able to generate documents by applying them. Could you be a little more specific? There are lots of ways to generate XML, but I never heard of anyone who wanted to do this based on diffs between other documents. What kind of document differences are you talking about here?

I don't think the specific documents matter, and I don't think it's a unique use-case. Here's Microsoft talking about XML diff and patching (including a hypothetical example): http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/aa302294.aspx There's a tool here to do it: http://xmlpatch.sourceforge.net I'd just really like to be able to do something similar in Python.

XML Patch
Hi All, I'm looking for a python library that can parse XML Documents and create xml-aware diff files, and then use those to patch documents. In other words, I'd like something similar to the Google diff-match-patch tools, but something which is XML aware. I can see several projects on Pypi that can generate some form of xml diff, but I can't seem to see anything that can also do the patching side of things. Does anyone have any recommendations?
