It is currently quite fiddly to manually migrate things between releases, so any tips would be appreciated.
The way I keep track of the patches I enabled was to open all 4 patch files in Notepad++ and then do a search for `yes` across all 4 patch files. I copied and pasted the search results into another text file which is my starting point for the next patch version.

Possibly a bit primitive but quick and dirty works for me.
