Line 22:

Changing the selected branch is fairly simple. We make use of the '''pacman-mirrors''' command to update the selected branch.

Run the following command in a terminal:

sudo pacman-mirrors -g -b ''<branch>'' && sudo pacman -Syyu

sudo pacman-mirrors -f0 -b ''<branch>'' && sudo pacman -Syyu

* '''pacman-mirrors -g''' will generate a new mirrorlist, sorting the available servers according to their access time.

* '''pacman-mirrors -f''' will generate a new mirrorlist, sorting the available servers according to their access time.

** '''-b ''<branch>''''' tells ''pacman-mirrors'' to use the specified branch. Valid values are: ''stable'', ''testing'', ''unstable''

* '''pacman -S''' will synchronize the local package databases with the remote package databases.
