kcp update

kcp update

Update the kcp binary to the latest version

Synopsis

Updates the kcp binary to the latest version by downloading the latest release from GitHub and installing it. A backup of the current binary is created automatically and restored on failure.

If kcp is installed in a system directory (e.g. /usr/local/bin), re-run with sudo — the command checks permissions early and exits with an error if elevation is required.
