What's the best way to apply agStack policy changes and bug fixes to an active repository?▼

The best way to apply agStack policy changes and bug fixes is running an upgrade to fetch and merge the latest boilerplate into your repo. This safely applies template and convention updates to your active project with minimal disruption.

Do I need a clean git working tree to merge new conventions and DoD changes into my project?▼
