Yes, this should not be a problem, eventually the revision you are
running will be an ancestor of stable and from there you can just
"upgrade" to the new stable.

[galaxy-dev] Migrating database from development back to stable?

2013-10-08 Thread Guest, Simon
Dear Galaxy developers,

Currently our production Galaxy runs the stable branch.  However, I see one or 
two reasons to want to run the development (default) branch for a while.

This will involved migrating the database to a later version, which is fine, as 
migration scripts exists.

What I am wondering is whether it is guaranteed that I will be able to get back 
onto stable at a later date, i.e. there will be a database migration path from 
whatever development database version I end up on, onto a future stable 
database version.

Can anyone comment?

cheers,
Simon
