    In the /docs folder is a document talking about how to upgrade.

    Best to:
    - copy your existing site/files to your PC
    - merge all your customizations from it into the new version, which may involve rebuilding some of your templating components for the new version
    - copy your existing site's database to a new one
    - upload the new files to a new folder on your server
    - edit your new folder's configure.php settings to point to the new database
    - run the database upgrade
    - TEST TEST TEST
    - when happy, copy upgraded files to main/live site folder and upgrade the live database
    .
