I went to upgrade to 3.2 and found this information in the FAQs. However, the Github project is just for documentation, not the code itself. Where is the code repository, how do we access it and how do we merge the changes with the previous code branch?
I just get a 404, even when logged in.
HOW TO UPGRADE EXISTING APPLICATIONS WHEN A NEW VERSION IS AVAILABLE? We can split updating to 2 parts:
1 - ASP.NET Boilerplate (the framework) and module-zero (base domain logic for user, role, tenant... management). They can be easily updated since they are distributed on nuget. Here, a list of all nuget packages:
<a class="postlink" href="http://www.aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Documents/Nuget-Packages">http://www.aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/ ... t-Packages</a> <a class="postlink" href="http://www.aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Documents/Zero/Nuget-Packages">http://www.aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/ ... t-Packages</a>
New releases generally are backward-compatible. If there is a breaking change, we add it to relase notes and document how to migrate. You can upgrade these nuget packages even after your license period ends, since they are open source. So, upgrading this part is easy. Just update nuget packages.
2 - AspNet Zero - the startup template: UI views and application services
This part is not developed as a 'closed' framework/library. Because different companies have very different needs and you will want to extend/change UI upon your needs. That's why we call AspNet Zero as a starter kit/template: All source codes of ASP.NET Zero is on your hands, you can freely modify it upon your needs.
In most cases you don't have to upgrade if you are happy with your solution. Even you might built the same feature yourself before us. If you like new features, you should adapt changes to your existing solution. In this case, Github repository will help you much (github.com/aspnetzero/aspnet-zero, requires purchasing ASP.NET Zero to access). You can compare releases and copy changed parts to your solution. For example, assume that we enhanced Audit Logs page with new features and you want to get these new awesome features. If you did not change this page, you can directly override your page and related classes. If you did change it, then you can see changes on Github and you can merge changes to your code. We also advice you to review each commit to check if it's also needed for you. Because some of they can be bugfixes.

Hi,
Can you share your github username with us ? We will invite you to private repository.
Thanks
