Update¶

New releases are published every two weeks on the GitHub repository releases page.

Note

It is strongly recommended to update with every release to reduce the risk of merge conflicts and integration issues.

Update from original repository (upstream)¶

To fetch and merge changes from the original repository into your current project:

Create a new branch for the update. Replace 1_18 from our example with the target version or tag you are syncing to:
```
git checkout -b update-1_18
```
Add the upstream remote. Replace the URL with the actual upstream repository:
```
git remote add upstream https://github.com/VirtoCommerce/vc-frontend.git
```
Fetch upstream changes. This will download all branches and commits from upstream, without merging:
```
git fetch upstream
```
Merge changes from the dev branch of the upstream into your current branch:
```
git merge upstream/dev
```
Note

Resolve any merge conflicts if prompted.
(Optional) Remove the upstream remote if you don’t need to keep the upstream reference:
```
git remote remove upstream
```

Note

Use git remote -v to list current remotes. If you plan to pull updates frequently, you can skip removing upstream. Always test merged code before pushing to production.

Merge specific release from upstream (recommended)¶

If you need a specific version instead of a branch:

Select the desired release from https://github.com/VirtoCommerce/vc-frontend/releases

Add the upstream remote:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/VirtoCommerce/vc-frontend.git

Fetch all tags:
```
git fetch upstream --tags
```
Merge the specific release tag (e.g. 2.22.0):
```
git merge tags/2.22.0
```
