gstack-upgrade

Upgrading gstack safely involves running an automated command that detects your specific install type and applies the latest updates. The process handles global git, local git, and vendored setups, running necessary migrations and displaying what's new between versions.

During an upgrade, gstack runs version migrations automatically by detecting your installation type and applying the required updates. It orchestrates the migration process across global git, local git, and vendored setups while displaying user-facing messaging about what is new.

You can synchronize vendored gstack copies because the upgrade tool explicitly detects vendored setups and syncs them. This ensures your local and global installations stay in lockstep by applying updates and running migrations across both environments simultaneously.

The gstack upgrade works with local git and global git installations by detecting the specific install type and applying updates accordingly. It orchestrates upgrades across these environments, running version migrations and showing what is new between your current and latest versions.

Automating gstack version updates is best achieved through the dedicated upgrade command, which supports both auto-upgrade and manual upgrade workflows. It detects your installation type, applies updates, runs migrations, and synchronizes vendored copies automatically.

Synchronizing vendored copies during a gstack upgrade is required to ensure local and global installations stay in lockstep. The upgrade process detects vendored setups and syncs them automatically, preventing version drift and ensuring consistent behavior across your environments.
