Hi,
Six month ago, I used testing, and used to learn packaging for Debian
on
a testing box.
I have been out for some mounths.
I'am back now, and I see the way apt repo are dona is sloghtly
different.
Something "differential" has been introduced: "apt-get update"
downloads
some kind of patches whose name contains date.
Would you please indicate me a link that explain the change that have
been made?
Among packaging, I need to know how repos are made...

Not really the right list for this query, a simple Google query for "apt Debian admin" brings:

For the "diff" use within the latest versions of apt, Google gives:
