# GitLab Upgrader
|
|
|
|
GitLab Upgrader - a ruby script that allows you easily upgrade GitLab to latest minor version.
|
|
For example it can update your application from 6.4 to latest GitLab 6 version (like 6.6.1).
|
|
You still need to create a a backup and manually restart GitLab after runnning the script but all other operations are done by this upgrade script.
|
|
If you have local changes to your GitLab repository the script will stash them and you need to use `git stash pop` after running the script.
|
|
|
|
__GitLab Upgrader is available only for GitLab version 6.4.2 or higher__
