The only way I found to do this correctly is by analysing all the commits on Github for the release you aim and apply them manually on your project (like this page : tab "Files").

It's certainly fastidious but if you do it carefully, it works 100%. I do this for every releases of the module-zero-core-template for some times now. It's easier to do this for every releases than skipping several releases.

These are no strict rules to follow to update, But you can follow the below steps.

  1. Download the latest template the same way you did in step 1 before.

  2. Checkout the Framework-Master branch. The only thing here is just the raw framework files that I downloaded in step 1 of the previous steps.

  3. Delete all the files from the previous framework check-in. You don't know if a file is removed or added to the new download so deleting and copying a fresh set over solves that.
  4. Copy over the newly downloaded files.
  5. Commit the changes. Now, the only thing in Framework-Master is the new download.
  6. Checkout master.
  7. Here you can optionally create a merge branch if you like or you can use master. I generally create a new branch. so I would git checkout -b "NewFrameworkVersion1_13" or something like that. This may only work in GIT. Say in TFS, I think you can only merge into a branch that you are branched from.
  8. Merge Framework-Master into either Master or the new branch you created. NEVER MERGE TO FRAMEWORK-MASTER. That branch is just for the downloaded code ONLY.
