docs: recommend --upgrade for all pip installations in a virtualenv

As suggested by Mads Kiilerich.

Don't recommend this practice when no virtualenv is used, i.e. root
installation or --user installation: in this case upgrading existing packages
may be too disruptive. The user can still add it manually if he so chooses.

.. _backup:

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================


Settings
--------

Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.


Whoosh index
------------

The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located


Database
--------

When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.

A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
