Let $D_1$ and $D_2$ each be a <connection on a vector bundle>. Their difference is tensorial, so $D_1=D_2+a$ with $a\in\Omega^1(\operatorname{End}E)$. Extend $D_2$ to the <endomorphism bundle connection>. Expanding $(D_2+a)^2$ with the supplied graded <Leibniz rule> gives the <curvature difference formula>
$$
\boxed{F_{D_1}=F_{D_2}+D_2(a)+a\wedge a.}
$$
