# Description
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This command shows what packages were added, removed or upgraded
|
|
|
|
|
between subsequent versions of a profile. It only shows top-level
|
|
|
|
|
packages, not dependencies; for that, use [`nix profile
|
|
|
|
|
diff-closures`](./nix3-profile-diff-closures.md).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The addition of a package to a profile is denoted by the string `∅ ->`
|
|
|
|
|
*version*, whereas the removal is denoted by *version* `-> ∅`.
