Tired of upgrading?

Unfortunately, while I can't say we'll stop developing as fast, I've made upgrading a little easier. Latest NodeBB build (or for those on version releases, this will apply as of v0.3.0) will allow you to run ./nodebb upgrade, which should take care of upgrading plugins/themes, installing any missing packages, and migrating the database if necessary.

Full Steps, for reference

Abbreviated:

$ git pull    # back up your database first!
$ ./nodebb upgrade

This really helps save time. Thanks @julian!

No worries @trevor

The hard part is really still in resolving conflicts when you git pull, however...!

I upgraded with no problems.
