The upgrade script copies files from a BOINC source tree to a project tree. This is typically done after updating the source tree and recompiling the software.

Typical usage:

cd source/tools
upgrade project_name

upgrade does the following:

Stop the project.
Copy files from the source/html/* directories to the corresponding project directories (the default project root directory is \$HOME/projects/project_name).
Copy source/sched/cgi and source/sched/file_upload_handler to project_name/cgi-bin.
Copy other programs in source/sched to project_name/bin.
Copy programs in source/tools to project_name/bin.
Remind you to restart the project.

WARNING: some changes in the BOINC server software require corresponding changes to your BOINC database. Check the file html/ops/db_update.php and apply whatever changes are needed before restarting the project.

upgrade takes an optional environment variables INSTALL_DIR specifying the project's root directory. "; page_tail(); ?>
