Hello i would like to host a jenkins server on a mac device and i am concerned about keeping it up 2 date with security fixes and upgrading strategy.
So to install jenkins on a mac you need to install it via hombrew. When upgrading I know that its good to keep a backup of the homefolder. But how should i upgrade ?
- Should i upgrade it via homebrew, the Jenkins UI, or manually? (what exactly happens when clicking upgrade in the UI?)
- What happens when the new version breaks, is restoring the home folder enough or do i need to fiddle with the .war or jenkins binaries too?
Would be glad if someone can give me a few pointers atleast
