This is what I did to switch

1. first backup old directory. To be safe, also back up your database
(should not be necessary, but you never know)
2. get a copy of the repository using 
     git clone git://github.com/bsag/tracks.git tracks
   this will drop all files in the subdirectory tracks from where you
executed the git command
3. copy over database.yml from your old install to the new tracks/config
4. regenerate environment.rb because of the rails2.1 migration: set your
salt and choose a timezone
5. copy over your logs from the old install if you like to keep them or
create a new log directory (from your new tracks directory run 'cp -R
log.tmpl log')

Start tracks as usual from the new tracks directory

If you want to update to the latest repository, just run
  git pull

Good luck,

Reinier
