### What do you see as an issue? Dear Airflow maintainers. Can you please suggest. I do have an Airflow installed as pip package. I have read the "[How to upgrade](https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/installation/upgrading.html#how-to-upgrade)" part of the documentation and curertnly it says: > To upgrade a bootstrapped local instance, you can set the AIRFLOW_VERSION environment variable to the intended version prior to rerunning the installation command. Upgrade incrementally by patch version: e.g., if upgrading from version 2.8.2 to 2.8.4, upgrade first to 2.8.3. For more detailed guidance, see [Quick Start](https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/start.html). > > To upgrade a PyPI package, rerun the pip install command in your environment using the desired version as a constraint. For more detailed guidance, see [Installation from PyPI](https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/installation/installing-from-pypi.html). I find this confusing for many reasons: 1) What is "bootstrapped local instance"? This term hasn't appeared anywhere in the prior documenation. 2) If I have an Airflow installed as pip package, do I just need to perform the regular steps of fresh installation to the most current version **or** I need to consider to perform the installation of all the intermediate versions that are standing between the one I have and the most current, step by step? Can you please suggest? I'm happy to create a pull request with appropriate documentation update, based on your reply. Thanks! ### Solving the problem _No response_ ### Anything else _No response_ ### Are you willing to submit PR? - [x] Yes I am willing to submit a PR! ### Code of Conduct - [x] I agree to follow this project's [Code of Conduct](https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
