This works well - I imagine 95% of the use cases are going to be "upgrade within current version" or "move to next release" so I want that to be as little guesswork as possible. I'm going to be on the road for a little while yet - part of the reason for my slow responses. I won't be able to try this out... maybe I can gin up some testers.

Issue #3197 has been updated by tse. File upgrade3 added Hiya, I think this gives you what you asked for: Upgrading to HEAD can be equally done with '-r 0' or '-r unstable' or even '-r master' and '-r 273ce6e304' Upgrading to the latest release can be done with '-r 1' '-r stable' or even '-r DragonFly_RELEASE_5_6' and '-r e2b890' So the user can select a relative number, an absolute named branch, a specific commit, or even the bonus phrases of 'stable/unstable' Feel free to change the wording or anything else; or ask for any changes.

Issue #3197 has been updated by tse. File upgrade2 added Yup, lets leave the Makefile > Let's go even simpler - if a branch isn't named, as either RELEASE, HEAD, or > (Git commit ID), assume that it's an update of whatever branch is currently > in place. No menus or choices needed. For myself personally, I stay on the latest stable release, so I want upgrades to always change the branch 5.4 -> 5.6 -> ... I had basically finished some changes when I got your message (+ a long break for another test install). They give us the latest stable branch with `/usr/upgrade -r 1`. And the prior stable branch with '-r 2'. For the bleeding edge, people can get that with `/usr/upgrade -r 4`, or a specific commit with `/usr/upgrade -r abcdef123`. Maybe the bleeding edge should be '-r 0', but I currently placed it lower so people don't assume it's the first and best option Let me at least upload that script (upgrade2) I agree that people on the bleeding edge only ever want to upgrade their current branch so then a no-branch-change default would be best; but for stable branch users it would just give them a long wait that looks like an upgrade and tells them to reboot etc Currently if '-r' is specified then there are no menus or choices, which I think is a nice balance. Maybe '-r 4' should move to '-r 0' Bug #3197: DragonFly upgrades http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/3197#change-13766 * Author: tse * Status: New * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: Feature request * Target version: Hiya, I realize this is quite a simple script, and possibly misses useful features (?).

People are very used to having the make function work, so I'm leery of removing that functionality... but on the other hand, I am not the one doing all the work. Do what you would enjoy working on and let's see what other people think.

Issue #3197 has been updated by tse. You're right, some people will want HEAD, and seeing @yellowrabbit do a commit bisect, a one liner upgrade to named commit would also be nice I wanted to avoid required flags, so people don't have to re-look them up, but an optional flag like [ -r HEAD | COMMIT | RELEASE ] would make the script more automatable, so maybe something like: /usr/upgrade [-r release] [configuration] Configuration is "X86_64_GENERIC" Select a release: [1] DragonFly_RELEASE_5_6 [2] DragonFly_RELEASE_5_4 [_] Enter a specific commit like HEAD or abcdef123 If people don't pass a [ -r RELEASE ], then the script will give the release options to select from Would something like that be what you're after? > Kitchen sink scripts that handle maintenance are good but they tend to grow > and then collapse under their weight. Agreed This script partly replicates the functionality in /usr/Makefile. Should it totally replicate the functionality (dports-create, dports-download), so the Makefile can be removed?

Feel free to re-download and try it out I am not sure how to describe this exactly, but I'm thinking it would be better as an action - upgrade --release for the current release version, 'upgrade --bleedingedge' or similar for HEAD. Kitchen sink scripts that handle maintenance are good but they tend to grow and then collapse under their weight. I may be overthinking this.
