[[!meta title="How to update cdist"]]
## Update The Git Installation
To upgrade cdist in the current branch use
git pull
# Also update the manpages
./build man
export MANPATH=$MANPATH:$(pwd -P)/doc/man
If you stay on a version branche (i.e. 1.0, 1.1., ...), nothing should break.
The master branch on the other hand is the development branch and may not be
working, break your setup or eat the tree in your garden.
## Update The Python Package
To upgrade to the lastet version do
pip install --upgrade cdist

### Updating from 1.0 to 1.1
In 1.1 the type **\_\_file** was split into **\_\_directory**, **\_\_file** and
**\_\_link**. The parameter **--type** was removed from **\_\_file**. Thus you
need to replace **\_\_file** calls in your manifests:
* Remove --type from all \_\_file calls
* If type was symlink, use \_\_link and --type symbolic
* If type was directory, use \_\_directory
