Upgrading from 1.2.1-rc1
-----------------------------------
While Artifactory is down:
- Make a backup of the $ARTIFACTORY_HOME folder.
- Remove the artifactory.config.xml file from the extracted zip.
- Copy the extracted zip content over to your exiting
$ARTIFACTORY_HOME, overwriting exiting files.
If you are using the standalone version on Linux, also reinstall the
artifactoryctl init script.

Upgrading from 1.2.0.x
----------------------------------
Make a backup of the $ARTIFACTORY_HOME folder..
To upgrade the configuration copy the
$ARTIFACTORY_HOME/etc/artifactory.config.xml file over to the new
installation.
To upgrade repositories content, please export your repositories from
the old version and re-import them into the current one using the web
UI.
Unfortunately, security settings have dramatically changed from
1.2.0.x and cannot be imported.

Documentation
-----------------------
Please note that since this is only a release candidate not all docs
have been updated to reflect the latest changes.

Enjoy!
