What is the best way to update?

[LamerManuel]

Tried to update it via "npm update" but unfortunately that doesn't work. Therefore my question, what is the best way to update the theme? Couldn't find anything in the readme.

Hello @LamerManuel
What do you want to update? AstroPaper 1 to AstroPaper v2? Or want to update third-party packages? For third-party packages I usually use npm-check-updates package.

How do I update v2 to the latest version? Thanks!

Hi @satnaing . You have refactored this theme a lot since the last time I used them. Is there any way to update those changes in my repo? When running npm create astro@latest --template satnaing/astro-paper, are users supposed to get a fixed version of Astro Paper at the time?

Add a new remote to your git repo:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/satnaing/astro-paper.git
# check
git remote -v

and you will be able to merge branch upstream/main into yours or rebase your branch onto upstream/main.

Thank you.

The solution should be in the README. I came here seeking an answer to the same question.
