+
+How can I upgrade my chatmail relay?
+------------------------------------
+
+To upgrade to the latest ``main`` branch,
+``cd`` into your local checkout of `https://github.com/chatmail/relay/`_
+and run the following commands:
+
+   ::
+
+       git pull origin main --rebase --autostash
+       scripts/cmdeploy run
+
+If you don't want the latest development version,
+but a specific tagged release like `1.10.0 <https://github.com/chatmail/relay/releases/tag/1.10.0>`_,
+run ``git pull origin 1.10.0`` instead.
+
+If you made local changes for your setup,
+they will be reapplied as long as they conflict with the upgrade.
+If a conflict arises, ``git status`` will tell you how to resolve it.
