We have been using discourse in the default tests-passed releases for long time. I would like to configure the forum to use only stable releases, and have only a few upgrades in the year. I have read how to configure stable branch app.yml to using version: stable. But my concern is whether I can …

Thanks a lot, I will wait until a stable release is announced. So the correct way should be not making any more upgrade, wait until a stable release is announced and once it is announced, change app.yml to version: stable and rebuild the forum. Is it correct? Thank you

@ariznaf @RGJ can you please help me understand how to deploy only stable versions or specific git tags? (es: 3.1.4)

I’m in the same boat as the OP. Sorry for the dumb question, but which is the stable release version? 3.2.0 is a “Stable” release right? [image] 3.2.0: Major Release megaphoneAnnouncements Discourse 3.2 is complete! This release includes significant improvement…

There’s “tests-passed” (the 3.2.0 release) and the “stable” branches. While both are “stable”, the stable branch is: 3.1.5: Security and bug fix release more focused on lack of change than lack of bugs The note about both being “stable”: 3.1.5: Security and bug fix release all releases,…

Hi there, thanks for the reply. Yes, I understand the nuances about “stable = not changing” vs. “stable = not crashing”. But I’m confused because I’m on tests-passed and it already has me on 3.3.0.beta1-dev. I was assuming that 3.2.0 was the latest stable release because it doesn’t have -dev or -bet…

3.2.0 is indeed the latest stable release. :+1: If you didn’t manage to change lanes this time round then you would need to wait for 3.3.0 to be tied off (should be around late July) before trying again. Though even on tests-passed you could stick to updating when the minor versions come out, which…

I cannot, as I haven’t ever done it, so I cannot say the correct way. What I have understood is that you have to stop upgrading your system from the non stable releases and wait of a stable release that is ahead from your currente release. Then edit app.yml file and edit it to use stable release i…

I have updated to 3.2.0 stable from 3.2.0-beta5-dev (test-passed) and no problem at all. Just stopped the forum, edit app.yml and uncommented the line #version: test-passed and changed it to version: stable. Then run the following commands: git pull launcher rebuild app wait to the rebuild proce…
