Mercurial how to create a patch for a single file in a repo

I have a file called some / work / file.py in my repo.

I work in a repo (and in other files except the .py file) and made my changes and went from revising 20 to 30.

How can I create a patch for file.py only with versions 20 to 30 without including other files?

Sort of:

hg export 20:30 file.py > new.patch

I tried the command, but it doesn’t work.

hg export exports individual changes as individual objects.

If you understand correctly, you need an answer to the question “What changes have been made file.cbetween revision 20 and revision 30?”, That is, you only need one diff file.

Here's how you can do it:

hg diff file.c -r 20:30 > new.diff
