Review Comment:
   right yeah it's a hard one... i thought about that ... i was trying to just be like... here's an example... there are other things you can do too so go google :)  
   
   because.... we already have a _lot_ of docs... and not trying to be an exhaustive 
   
   could patch single commit, could patch diff between two commits... or two tags... or what have you 
   
   e.g. here's the patch between 2.4 and some commit https://github.com/apache/airflow/compare/2.4.0..21c40cd4cc7830bc17a4180d8dd0fa2cc4ed9cea.patch
   
   what do you think's the best balance to strike?
