How to properly upgrade from 1.71 to 1.8.0 #116

Closed rsk2832 closed 1 year ago

I have currently running 1.7.1 of the gigahorse software. I have downloaded the 1.8.0 version and extracted to a temporary location. Before I do anything destructive, I wanted to make sure I did the steps properly. What are the steps that I need to do in order to upgrade? Do I replace the entire directory only and that's it? Or is there more to it with needing new initialization and entering saved wallet seed phrase and copying over db, etc?

stop everything via ./chia.bin stop all -d, delete the current chia-gigahorse-farmer or move it, then unzip the new release and start it again

Easy enough! Thanks for the quick response.
