The gstack upgrade tool detects global versus vendored installs, running the appropriate upgrade flow for both and optionally syncing a local vendored copy to the latest version.

Can I get a backup before upgrading gstack to avoid breaking my setup?

What is the best way to check for gstack updates without a full upgrade?
