When officially released 8.0 will support (mostly) seamless upgrades from the 7.x series. However until the official release you must follow these steps to upgrade from 7.x:
- Backup your data and load it into a new 8.0 system.
- 8.0 always runs with an on-disk database, in-memory databases are no longer supported. If you were previously running in in-memory mode (the default), you don't need to do anything. But if you were previously passing `-on-disk` to `rqlited` so that rqlite ran in on-disk mode, you must now remove that flag.
- 8.0 always runs with an on-disk database, in-memory databases are no longer supported. Improvements made late in the 7.0 series means there is little difference in write performance between in-memory and on-disk modes, and supporting both modes just means confusion and higher development costs. If you were previously running in in-memory mode (the default), you don't need to do anything. But if you were previously passing `-on-disk` to `rqlited` so that rqlite ran in on-disk mode, you must now remove that flag.
