Sofware updates incremental or full?

I am currently updating the sofware on a PA-4020. Are the sofware updates are incremental or full. I am currently on 3.1.3 and am going to 3.1.7. Do I need to step through the upgrades in order or can I skip to 3.1.7? Once the most current is installed is there any reason (besides fallback) to keep the old versions on the fw's drive?

One was not seein...
