> How to upgrade Julia 1.0.1 to a new release Julia 1.0.2?

Leveraging all the experience built into the code base of [`rbenv`](https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv) … you could use `jlenv`.

Install:

1. [jlenv](https://github.com/HiroakiMikami/jlenv#installation) - this installs julia-build by default.

Then [install Julia versions](https://github.com/HiroakiMikami/jlenv#installing-julia-versions):

```julia
$ jlenv install v1.1.0

```

**NOTE:**  
As further versions of Julia are released, the [julia-build project](https://github.com/HiroakiMikami/julia-build) gets updated, so you will need to [update julia-build](https://github.com/HiroakiMikami/julia-build#upgrading), before you can install a new version of julia.
