Fetching updates on Dreamhack?

How does one update their repos on their hack now? The 'old' script no longer pulls anything for me (what used to be on http://wiki.dwscoalition.org/wiki/index.php/Dev_Maintenance) and I don't understand how I can keep up with changes. :/

(Context: I'm on Windows; I use PuTTY and WinSCP).

Edit: ok, if anybody else wonders, short answer is you can no longer update your hack using old methods. :/

Edit 2: long answer is you can switch to the new system. See comments for detailed instructions. :)

I would expect the new instructions on http://wiki.dwscoalition.org/wiki/index.php/Dev_Maintenance to work, but I haven't upgraded my 'hack yet. It may succeed silently?

Okay, as far as I know now you have a shiny new git-based install that is up to date. And everything is loading and everything.

I am assuming we want to work through what happens when making changes now?

Okay, I've just finished up some additional revamps of Dev Maintenance. I feel a lot more comfortable with these instructions.

I have also made slight changes to the moving instructions that I hope will improve them for folks new to them.
