Upgrade to master with git

[phm2000]

Hi

I can’t upgrade my version to master, I always have 1.59rc2 version (I’m on centos7)

What I did :
cd /root/fogproject
git checkout master
git pull
cd bin
./installfog.sh

But always 1.59rc2 verison instead of 1.58, what should I do ?

Thanks for help

Master branch is on 1.5.9-RC2

To get specifically 1.5.8 you would run:

cd /root/fogproject
git checkout tag/1.5.8 -b master
cd bin
./installfog.sh -y

I would highly recommend not doing this in your main branch though.

Example:

git clone https://github.com/fogproject/fogproject /root/fog-1.5.8
cd /root/fog-1.5.8
git checkout tag/1.5.8 -b master
cd bin
./installfog.sh

This way your /root/fogproject folder can be updated easily.

Thank you,

Thanks for reply

Which version do you recommend ? 1.5.8 or 1.5.9 rc2 ?

Is 1.59rc2 stable ?

Thanks

RC2 is in the last stages before becoming 1.5.9. Is it more stable than 1.5.8? That is hard to say. 1.5.9RC2 does fix some bugs that were discovered in 1.5.8. It is up to you if you want to role back to 1.5.8 or just sit on 1.5.9RC2 for a little bit until its promoted to 1.5.9 GA. I can tell you the developers need people to run on the RC releases to get the most exposure before its made into a GA release. The current plan is for 1.5.9 to be the last build of the 1.5.x line (as of now that is the plan). All future development work will focus on 1.6.x line of FOG.

@phm2000 As George said, the 1.5.9-RC2 has a fair amount of bugs fixed that we saw in 1.5.8 and as we have not added features since 1.5.8 I would say 1.5.9-RC2 is more stable…

We are very close to the next official release.

Ok, many thanks, I will continue with 1.5.9rc2
