[Docs] Updated Subtree Docs for Upgrading Versions #2594

Closed AlexandreSinger closed 3 months ago

AlexandreSinger commented 3 months ago

Added documentation on how to upgrade the version of a subtree. This is non-trivial since many repos store their versions on different branches. Change the branch of a subtree is basically creating a new subtree, so the old subtree needs to be completely remove from VTR first.

@vaughnbetz Please review whenever you have a moment. This is a non functional change which just adds documentation on how to upgrade from one version of a subtree to another when the subtree is on a different branch. I do not know if this is the most efficient way of doing it; however, I do think that this is the easiest to write down.

Looks good; thanks.
