| - If you performed a [[dev:Git]] install (e.g. on *nix) and you opted for symbolic links to the ''[[dir:exec]]'' and ''[[dir:text]]'' directories, the only file you might need to manually update or merge would be the ''[[dir:ctrl]]/[[custom:text.dat]]'' file. All the other files should be automatically updated with your ''git pull'' command; you should be able to skip to the final step (''jsexec update''). | - If you performed a [[dev:Git]] install (e.g. on *nix) and you opted for symbolic links to the ''[[dir:exec]]'' and ''[[dir:text]]'' directories, the only file you might need to manually update or merge would be the ''[[dir:ctrl]]/[[custom:text.dat]]'' file.
