# Upgrade from earlier versions
# Upgrading old versions
I very much recommend going via each major release in turn (eg, 2.0.6
-> 2.1.3 -> 2.2.4 -> 2.3.0 rather than 2.0.6 -> 2.3.0).
## Get the new code (from git)
While the basic database and file formats haven't changed *completely*, it's
different enough to be a pain.
If you got shimmie from `git`, then `git pull` should fetch the latest code
(`git checkout master` then `git pull` if you're on an old non-master branch).
Once the new Shimmie code is ready, you'll need to make sure all the
dependencies are in place and up-to-date via `composer install`.
## Get the new code (.zip)
If you got shimmie from one of the .zip downloads, you'll need to download
new code, extract it, then copy across the `data` folder from the old install
into the new one.
# Update database schema
This should be automatic - next time the site is loaded, it'll see that the
current schema is out of date, and will update it.
