We started a umbraco project with 7.1.8 and did a manually install (web platform installer). I now realize that a nuget version is alot easier to maintain and update if I want to keep up with minor releases etc.
I figured that I can't just go from a manually to a nuget so I have to do a new project and migrate everything.
Perfered method?
first migrate 7.1.8 to nuget 7.1.8 and then do update
manually upgrade to latest and then migrate to nuget
migrate 7.1.8 to nuget latest
I guess the last is the hardest if I want to be able to keep and update the existing db?
Is there any good know-how about migration to nuget project? I'm guessing the doc types and nodes will be problems if I don't keep the same db (don't see any reason why I wouldn't), and there may be other problems I need to resolve.
