Updating Rein isn't described anywhere, and installing new version over old breaks all functionality

[bajsicki]

So I wanted to update Rein, given that my version was... old, to say the least.

Here's what I did:

$ git clone https://github.com/ReinProject/python-rein.git ~/python-rein $ cd python-rein $ sudo pip install

Now, rein 'works', in that running rein results in the normal list of commands. But when I do rein status, I get this:

Right now, the way to update would be to insert the command git checkout v0.2.4-alpha before running the installer.

The howto has been updated.
