Difference between precise and raring ubuntu source code

Can somebody explain me the difference between the following files:

drwxr-xr-x  28 root root      4096 Apr 22 12:04 linux-lts-raring-3.8.0
-rw-r--r--   1 root root  15209788 Mar 14 03:38 linux-lts-raring_3.8.0-38.56~precise1.diff.gz
-rw-r--r--   1 root root      6333 Mar 14 03:38 linux-lts-raring_3.8.0-38.56~precise1.dsc
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 107018407 May  8  2013 linux-lts-raring_3.8.0.orig.tar.gz

I want to write a simple driver and so would give the path of one of these in my driver Makefile.

OS Info

#lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS
Release:    12.04
Codename:   precise

Also:
