ModifyVersionDifferencesEvent

New in version 12.0

The PSR-14 event \TYPO3\CMS\Workspaces\Event\ModifyVersionDifferencesEvent can be used to modify the version differences data, used for the display in the Web > Workspaces backend module. Those data can be accessed with the getVersionDifferences() method and updated using the setVersionDifferences(array $versionDifferences) method.
