Version tracking is automatic - bd updates metadata.json on every run. 
bd upgrade [command]

​
bd upgrade ack

Mark the current bd version as acknowledged. This updates metadata.json to record that you’ve seen the current version. Mainly useful after reviewing upgrade changes to suppress future upgrade notifications. Note: Version tracking happens automatically, so you don’t need to run this command unless you want to explicitly mark acknowledgement. Examples: bd upgrade ack bd upgrade ack —json 
bd upgrade ack [flags]

​
bd upgrade review

Show what’s new in bd since the last version you used. Unlike ‘bd info —whats-new’ which shows the last 3 versions, this command shows ALL changes since your specific last version. If you’re upgrading from an old version, you’ll see the complete changelog of everything that changed since then. Examples: bd upgrade review bd upgrade review —json 
bd upgrade review [flags]

​
bd upgrade status

Check if bd has been upgraded since you last used it. This command uses the version tracking that happens automatically at startup to detect if bd was upgraded. Examples: bd upgrade status bd upgrade status —json 
bd upgrade status [flags]
