FAQPage Schema
How do I upgrade gstack to the latest version across different install types?▼

To upgrade gstack to the latest version, this skill detects your installation type—global git, local git, or vendored—and coordinates the upgrade by fetching, resetting, and running setup scripts. It handles migrations automatically for a safe version transition.

What is the best way to automate gstack migration and version management on multiple machines?▼

Automating gstack migration and version management involves detecting the install type and running post-upgrade migrations automatically. This skill coordinates these upgrade steps across multiple machines and deployment modes, ensuring version consistency and surfacing changelog summaries.

Do I need shell access and Git to run a safe gstack upgrade?▼

Yes, you need shell access and Git to run a safe gstack upgrade. The upgrade process requires shell access to execute installation scripts, Git to perform fetch and reset operations for git-based installs, and migration tooling for auditable updates.

How does the upgrade process handle vendored installations differently from git installations?▼

For vendored installations, the upgrade process performs a complete vendored replacement with migrations rather than using git stash, fetch, and reset commands. It detects the install type and chooses the appropriate upgrade path to ensure a safe version transition.

Why does my gstack upgrade require running post-upgrade migrations and how are they applied?▼

Post-upgrade migrations are required during a gstack upgrade to ensure stability and access to new features. The skill runs these migrations automatically after performing the version upgrade, subsequently displaying a changelog summary for the new version.
