Hi David,

These are the notes I made for myself on updating newt and newtmgr:

# Updating `newt` and `newtmgr`

To update the `newt` and `newtmgr` tools:

- Go to `$GOPATH/src/mynewt.apache.org/newt/`
- Run `git pull` to get the latest source code for the tools
- Switch branches if necessary (ex. `git checkout develop`)
- Go into the `newtmgr` sub-folder
- Run `go install`
- Repeat the process from the `newt` and `newtvm` folders

This will cause the tools in $GOPATH/bin to be rebuilt, which you can see
by running `ls -l $GOPATH/bin`

Hi all,

I know there must be an easy way to do this, but I haven't found it yet.

I'm trying to get newt up to the latest version in the develop branch.  Here's 
what I've done so far:

% cd /Users/dsimmons/dev/go/src/mynewt.apache.org/newt 
<http://mynewt.apache.org/newt>
% newt version
Apache Newt (incubating) version: 0.9.0
% git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/0_10_0_dev
Branch develop set up to track remote branch 0_10_0_dev from origin.
% git rebase
Fast-forwarded develop to refs/remotes/origin/0_10_0_dev.
% git pull
Already up-to-date.

That last part doesn't seem right to me.

% ./build.sh
Building newt.  This may take a minute...
Successfully built executable: 
/Users/dsimmons/dev/go/src/mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt/newt 
<http://mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt/newt>
$ /Users/dsimmons/dev/go/src/mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt/newt 
<http://mynewt.apache.org/newt/newt/newt> version
Apache Newt (incubating) version: 0.9.0

And that part definitely isn't right.

If I can get some help in how to actually update newt, then I'll write up a doc 
on how to do it for others.
