{{Warning|Edge is under constant development so be careful using it in production. It can break your system.}}
 
# Add the edge repository to ''/etc/apk/repositories'': {{Cmd|echo http://dl-3.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main >> /etc/apk/repositories}} or just edit the file in-place (replace '''v2.3''' with your release) {{Cmd|sed -i -e 's/v2.3/edge/g' /etc/apk/repositories}}
# Upgrade all packages in one shot {{Cmd|apk upgrade -a -U}}
# Check your current release {{Cmd|cat /etc/alpine-release}} You will see the build date attached to the release.
 
<!--
cat /etc/alpine-release | cut -c 0-3

cat /etc/alpine-release | cut -c 0-3 | sed -i -e 's/v{}/edge/g' /etc/apk/repositories
