this site runs on drupal. and drupal every so often will release a bug fix or security update. that means i will need to update my drupal core. i have been doing this for years using the script below. its fast, quick and automated. doesnt take more than a minute even.
it doesnt use drush, because the hosting provider has locked php down so, without further ado, the bash script!
#!/bin/sh
# updates drupal
