To make sure you have all the latest features and bugfixes, it’s a good idea to
|
||||
keep your MMGen installation upgraded to the latest version. MMGen does no
|
||||
checking for updates itself, so the following steps should be performed by you
|
||||
on a periodic basis.
|
||||
|
||||
If you’ve deleted or lost your local copy of the MMGen repository, clone it
|
||||
again from Github or Gitlab:
|
||||
|
||||
$ git clone https://github.com/mmgen/mmgen.git # Github
|
||||
$ git clone https://gitlab.com/mmgen/mmgen.git # Gitlab
|
||||
|
||||
Enter the repository and check out the master branch. Pull the latest changes
|
||||
from the remote repository:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cd mmgen
|
||||
$ git checkout master
|
||||
$ git pull
|
||||
|
||||
Check out the current stable version for your operating system:
|
||||
|
||||
$ git checkout stable_linux # for Linux-based systems
|
||||
$ git checkout stable_msys2 # for Microsoft Windows / MSYS2 systems
|
||||
|
||||
Note that if you want to try out the latest “bleeding edge” (and possibly
|
||||
unstable) features, you can just remain on the master branch and omit the
|
||||
preceding step. Information on recently added features can be found by typing
|
||||
`git log` or visiting the commits page on [Github][hc] or [Gitlab][lc].
|
||||
|
||||
Check the latest release notes in `doc/release-notes` and make note of any new
|
||||
features or requirements. Now perform the install:
|
||||
|
||||
$ sudo ./setup.py install # Linux
|
||||
$ ./setup.py install # Windows / MSYS2
