The standard openHABian `openHAB` and `main` branches will install the new openHAB version 4 and the old `openHAB3` and `legacy` branches will install the old openHAB version 3 or 2, respectively.

You can migrate between versions by selecting the corresponding 4X menu option.

You can migrate between openHAB software versions by selecting the corresponding 4X menu option. (HEADS UP: Downgrading openHAB is not supported and will probably result in a broken system until you also restore an openHAB 3 configuration).

If you want to choose from release (stable), snapshot or milestone releases, please do so via `openhabian-config` tool (also menu 4X).

Note this will **not** result in any openHABian branch change.
