Software is prepared for deployment across an enterprise system. The software initially included a base package and now includes an extended package. The extended package includes duplicate files and new files with respect to the base package. A method comprises using a computer to create indices of files for each of the base and extended packages, the indices identifying properties of the files; compare the properties of the files listed in the indices to identify the duplicate files and the new files in the extended package; and create a deployment package that includes only the new files.
