FAQPage Schema

How do I sync my local customizations with upstream changes without losing data?▼

To sync local customizations with upstream changes, fetch updates from the remote repository and merge them with your local modifications. The process preserves your customizations while applying new features and security patches.

How does automated merge conflict resolution work when updating a customized repository?▼

Automated merge conflict resolution uses skill intents to interpret and reconcile conflicting changes during an update. It attempts to resolve discrepancies automatically and provides guidance when manual intervention is required.

What are the pre-flight checks needed before fetching upstream updates?▼

Pre-flight checks for fetching upstream updates verify that no uncommitted changes exist in your local working directory. This ensures a clean state before applying merges and running post-update migrations.

How do I run database migrations and verify tests after merging upstream code?▼

To run database migrations and verify tests after merging upstream code, execute post-update migration scripts and then trigger the build and test suite. This verifies the updated system is stable and functional.

Can I preview upstream changes before applying them to my local repository?▼

Yes, you can preview upstream changes before applying them to your local repository. The update process fetches from the remote and provides a preview of incoming modifications before executing the merge.
