Safely upgrading docker community version

The docker upgrade instructions cryptically say Don't worry about data loss; your data will be automatically migrated to the latest version schema if needed.

Can you explain this?

I would want to preserve all my environment data, keys, application state data, etc. If the docker-compose file is updated, all that would get blown away, right?

If you are using a version after v0.2.0, you can directly pull the latest repository to obtain the docker-compose file and then update it. All your data will be preserved. :slight_smile:
