I use SublimeText 2’s portable version. Whenever a new build is released and I download it, I basically extract it right over the old folder. As long as I keep all my own snippets in the data/Packages/User directory, they don’t get overwritten. But I’m pretty sure other files get overwritten, like default preferences, etc… I realize that certain preferences I should move to user-specific preferences.
Anyways, my question, is there a specific procedure to upgrading the portable version of Sublime where you keep all your existing settings, snippets, etc? Do all custom snippets and packages need to be stored in the User directory and all program-related settings need to be stored in user-specific profiles (which I assume are stored in the User directory also)? What about macros? Build scripts? Etc?
Basically I just want to upgrade versions without loosing settings and custom features…
