Hi,
In addition to above, I would also suggest below blog which has step by step instructions along with screenshots about the new solution enhancements -

Hope this helps.
Hi zaub,
In simple terms,there are several differences:
Patch a solution
1.This creates an empty solution and you will add whichever entities and assets you want.
2.The new solution's name will contain base solution name and "Patch" so that we could know it’s a patch.
3.Commonly used to test new features. For example, we need to add a new option Field to our Contact entity, but we don’t want to do it in our full solution so we can test it out, make adjustments and whatnot.
Clone a solution
1.If you select your Base solution and choose Clone Solution, all of your patches are rolled into your Base solution leaving with you with ONE solution to manage.
2.The new solution's name will not change.
3.Commonly used to backup base solutions.
Hope it helps.
Best Regards
Leo
Hi, You can refer my blog on the exact same topic - dynamicscrmclub.wordpress.com/.../using-clone-a-patch-clone-solution-in-d365-solutions

Hi,
Hope below descriptions will helps you -
1. Clone a patch
You can create multiple patches for your solution as an incremental development of your solution. To create another new patch you would select the original solution and click “Clone a Patch”. Thais means it will create new instance with referencing old solution where you can start changes on top of old solution.
2. Clone a Solution
When you want to plan your next version of the solution, you usually want to rollup all of the patches that were released for the base solution into the new solution, before you can add new changes in there. This can be done using the “Clone Solution” button. Clone solution means merged all other patches in single solutions.
