How To Update Oh My Zsh

As a programmer, we spend a lot of time in the terminal.
If aren't using zsh and oh-my-zsh, you should give it a try. Before I switched over to zsh, I had a crazy amount of bash functions and scripts in my dotfiles. Those bash functions and scripts became deprecated because they come out of the box with zsh.

I had to look up the command to update oh my zsh because the autoupdate was running into errors.

# just run this command
$ upgrade_oh_my_zsh 

# for newer versions
$ omz update

If you want oh-my-zsh to autoupdate without the prompts, add

DISABLE_UPDATE_PROMPT=true

to your ~/.zshrc file.
