FAQPage Schema
How do I upgrade gstack to the latest version?

To upgrade gstack to the latest version, run /gstack-upgrade to automatically detect your install type and apply the update. It handles version migrations, writes upgrade markers, and cleans up caches to keep your state in sync.

How does gstack version migration work during an upgrade?

Version migration during an upgrade automatically applies required state changes after installing the latest gstack version. The process writes upgrade markers and cleans caches to ensure your global and vendored installs remain synchronized.

Do I need git and bash to run a gstack upgrade?

Yes, you need shell tools like git and bash to perform install detection, execute upgrade steps, and generate post-upgrade changelogs. A working gstack installation and access to upgrade scripts are also required.

Can I upgrade both global and vendored gstack installs simultaneously?

Yes, the upgrade detects both global and vendored gstack installs, including git-based ones, and performs a safe upgrade. This ensures a consistent toolchain across your environment without requiring manual steps.

What is the best way to automate gstack versioning for DevOps maintenance?

The best way to automate gstack versioning is using the /gstack-upgrade command during DevOps maintenance workflows. It aligns versions, applies migrations, generates post-upgrade summaries, and allows continuing with the originally invoked skill.

Why does my gstack upgrade not working after a manual install change?

A gstack upgrade may fail if your installation state is out of sync or upgrade scripts are inaccessible. The tool attempts to resolve this by detecting install types and cleaning caches, but requires a valid git and bash environment.
