To update discourse, do the following:
1. Switch to and work from the `master` branch and the directory this
file is in.
2. Run `./update.py print-diffs` and update the nginx settings and
backend settings accordingly. If you don't know how to, ask for
help - do not skip this step!
3. Run `./update.py update`.
4. Run `nix build -L -f ../../../../ discourse.tests` to make sure the
update works. Also test manually, if possible.
5. If the update works, commit it. If not, apply necessary fixes and
commit. No manual fixes that would be overwritten by the
`./update.py` script should be committed - the script should be
fixed instead.
6. Run `./update.py update-mail-receiver`. If there's an update, do
step 4 and 5 again.
7. Run `./update.py update-plugins`.
8. Run `nix build -L -f ../../../../ discourseAllPlugins.tests` to
make sure the plugins build and discourse starts with them. Also
test manually, if possible.
9. If the update works, commit it. If not, apply necessary fixes and
commit. No manual fixes that would be overwritten by the
`./update.py` script should be committed - the script should be
fixed instead.
