How to upgrade from 1.3.2 to 1.4

SheldonCooper

Your instructions to upgrade are much too vague. http://docs.getfuelcms.com/installation/installing
Yet there is nowhere else I can find instructions to upgrade...

How exactly do I upgrade to 1.4?

What files do I need to replace, tables do I change, ect...?

Running "php index.php fuel/installer/update" from current install does absolutely nothing.

Trying to replace the /fuel/modules/fuel folder just throws errors - so I am guessing I need to install 1.4 first, just not sure what to replace and what to keep.

I've made a few updates to the documentation to help clarify a couple things:

TY.

Following your instructions gives me THOUSANDS of conflicts, this seems like a terrible way to upgrade IMHO.

I have modified maybe 10 files of the actual foundation of FuelCMS. These conflicts are conflicts within your code - Is there not a better way to upgrade??

For Reference Here are the steps I am taking:
1. Create New Git Repo
2. Copy Current FuelCMS 1.3.2 installation files to that repo & Commit.
3. Create new branch (fuelupdate)
4. Link remote FuelCMS 1.4 master branch to fuelupdate branch (1.3.2)
5. Attempt a pull/merge & thousands of conflicts arise.

What folder were your changes made?

SheldonCooper

/assets/
/fuel/config/config.php
ect..

No core changes.

I ended up just moving over the files to a new installation and fixed the issue.

Thank you.
