 To update your Git clone, you can repeat the commands above without the first “git clone” line- And don’t forget to compile after you update- Like this:
 
     cd xonotic

 **Note:** The compiled binary will have a faint watermark with the git revision. To remove it completely put `set menu_watermark ""` into your `autoexec.cfg`.

+If you run into issues with the latest version you can easily revert to an older one. Since most bugs are caused by the game code rather that the engine, you just need to downgrade that repository. Inside the main xonotic repository, use `cd data/xonotic-data` and then `git checkout <some older commit>`. After that go back `cd -` and `./all compile` (with the optional `-r` flag).
