• ## In a nutshell, how to update a module from Drupal contrib, 
  ## on a production site that is under revision control (subversion).
  
  # If you turn on a module (that just happens to already be
  # present in the list on admin/build/modules), then you MUST
  # 1)  go to the update status page
  # 2)  find out if the module you just turned on is up to date
  # 3)  if it is,  fine (your done! stop here),  
  # 4)  if there are updates... then go to the drupal.org site first
  #     to see if there are any "gotchas" for the upgrade.  As you'll
  #     be turning the module on for the first time on a new site,
  #     then you shouldnt have to worry too much.
  # 5)  To run the updates: login via ssh
  
  ssh username@server.com
  
  # 6) go to the right folder and execute drush update
  
  cd domains/example.com/public_html/sites/all/modules
  drush --uri=example.com update modulename
  
  # 7) confirm that the update was successful on the site
  # 8) then check in the code
  
  svn commit -u username -m "updated modulename to the latest version"
