A general question about updates

I’ve read through that link and several other posts that I found on this forum… my newbie head is spinning.

I found a very recent thread here:

Check and manage pacnew files

Hello, I noticed that many people don’t know about pacnew files or at least don’t pay attention to their creation during the upgrade phase. To help even those who don’t pay attention, I created a bash script with yad GUI that simulates pacdiff actions. [Schermata del 2023-08-24 16-57-10] [Schermata del 2023-08-24 16-58-50] [Schermata del 2023-08-24 16-59-15] The program runs in the background and opens when new pacdiff files are found. Maybe it won’t be the best approach but if anyone ha…

If I am reading it correctly, this person appears to have created a simple GUI (I read that as newbie friendly) program that should automate this process.

Would you recommend using this or using this from the link you provided:

• pacdiff-pacman-hook-git — Pacman hook to run pacdiff automatically.

GitHub - desbma/pacman-hooks: Arch Linux Pacman hooks || pacdiff-pacman-hook-gitAUR

Or something else?
