Upgrading to Edge
An upgrade of Alpine Linux from a stable version to the rolling development version, edge can be done in a few simple steps.
- Add the edge repository to /etc/apk/repositories:
echo http://dl-3.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main >> /etc/apk/repositories
or just edit the file in-place (replace v2.4 with your release):sed -i -e 's/v2.4/edge/g' /etc/apk/repositories
- Upgrade all packages in one shot:
apk upgrade -a -U
- Check your current release:
cat /etc/alpine-release
You will see the build date attached to the release.
