When building a Patch for a setup should a patch file contain all items that 
could change or just the ones I know that have changed.   For example I have 
the following defined:

<PatchFamily Id="SoftwareUpdates" Version="$(var.PublicVersion)" 
Supersede="yes" ProductCode="{11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555}">
         <PropertyRef Id="ProductName"/>
         <ComponentRef Id="RegistrySettings" />
         <ComponentRef Id="File1" />
         <ComponentRef Id="File2" />
         <ComponentRef Id="File3" />
</PatchFamily>

The two setups I have only differ by one file, say File1.   Should I only have 
in the patch file the components that I know are different?  Does it hurt to 
put these other components in the patch file even if they don't change?  I was 
asking because would it make sense to perhaps have one patch file with 
everything that could be patched listed in it so I don't have to create this 
file over and over again?
