Description

Add update instructions to the README and include instructions for updates in stages.

If the existing conda version is too far behind the newest one, a direct update isn't always possible. Documenting this use case will hopefully help users update to the newest version successfully.

Checklist - did you ...

  • Add a file to the news directory (using the template) for the next release's release notes?
  • Add / update necessary tests?
  • Add / update outdated documentation?

This is an interesting case of adding a bug workaround to the documentation.

We could also suggest pointing a separate (new) conda installation at the base environment.

Users have also tried skipping current_repodata.json with conda install --repodata-fn=repodata.json

@marcoesters,

Thanks for this contribution. I had one suggestion that I thought could make it a little more visually appealing. Let me know what you think.
