Is there a way to see only the files that have been modified from 1.5.6 rather than manually overwrite every file?

Thanks

You can ask FileZilla Client to compare directories and list either the same or the different files. Essentially, you would want ALL of the 1.5.6.1 files and the extra time to upload a full fileset would be less than the extra time to pick and choose, by the time they are uploaded. If you hand modified any files, you would either know them or be able to pick them out by their timestamps. The full 1.5.6.1 fileset is intended to debug the full 1.5.6.0 fileset, so there is no compelling reason to refrain from sending all of them up.

Ah I see, thank you, that's useful to know! :)

Come to think of it, a third handle on that is the compact changelog text file that appears inside the downloaded OC .zip file. So, you can compare local to server (FZ), you can compare local to local (WM), and you can look at a list of basics (.zip).
