Software Updates

How to upgrade​

to the latest development version​

  1. Enter the RPi's terminal.
  2. Run the following command: 
    forklift pallet upgrade @main
  3. Reboot the RPi, e.g. by running: 
    sudo reboot

If the above command fails with an error message that you have changes which are not yet saved in a Git commit or which might not be in a remote Git repo:

  1. Run the following command to check for uncommitted changes:

    git -C ~/.local/share/forklift/pallet/ status

  2. Run the following command to check for unpushed commits:

    git -C ~/.local/share/forklift/pallet/ log

  3. Decide whether you want to git commit and git push any changes listed in the output of that command before performing the software upgrade.

  4. Run the following command:

    forklift pallet upgrade --force @main
    warning

    This command will permanently delete any local changes you've made! You'll lose any changes which you haven't already backed up (e.g. by committing and pushing them to GitHub).

  5. Reboot the RPi, e.g. by running:

    sudo reboot
