I'm not sure if or how gitweb can be made to produce that sort of
differential package, but if your original snapshot was recent enough,
you can do an upgrade like this:

[1] Download and extract the latest snapshot from gitweb.
[2] Locate a file called koha-install-log - depending on which
installation mode you chose, this may be in /usr/share/koha/misc.
[3] Run the following commands:

    perl Makefile.PL --prev-install-log /path/to/koha-install-log
    make
    make test
    sudo make upgrade

This will overlay your installation with new and updated files, making
backup copies of any HTML templates (but not code) that you modified.

Regards,

Galen
