I use a few different methods. One is to make the changes on the dev box, then
use BBEdit to "Compare" that to the file used on the live server. BBEdit allows
me to copy just the lines of code I want to the live file and save it.
If I have reason to worry that using FTP to save a file might corrupt a users
experience with the app then I make a copy of the changed file with a new name
and upload it to the live server and "rename" it the same as the live file. I
I'm doing this often I make a script and run it on the server:
rename("../myCode.pl-new","../myCode.pi") or die("Error 2: $!");
Now, from what I understand, and I am sure others here will correct me if I am
wrong, this makes the change on the "Atomic level" and it will not interrupt
your app.
