Combine garden content from development and production databases

I am looking for a solution to the following problem. Some time ago we had a garden plot on a production environment. The entire structure of the site (widgets, parts, layers) was created before the original version. Now we want to add an additional site with additional pages and layers. We want to do this work on the development environment and test it before release (in addition to a recent snapshot of the production database). At the same time, new minor content will be added to the production environment. So the question is, is there a solution to merge changes from one database of gardens (one development) to another (production)? These changes include layers, custom widgets, and parts.

Orchard export import module can help you. It allows you to export data from one instance of Orchard and import it into another. All modules that you use must have extra code to support this.

This will not help you merge if you plan to make changes in the dynamics in real time, but it may be a step in the right direction.

As an example of import and export support, consider the import and export methods in the driver for one of the Orchard kernel modules, for example tags.
