* [`nightly` ](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/tag/nightly ) builds will be made after each push, containing the latest fixes (but also possibly bugs).
* When using `--update` /`-U`, a release binary will only update to its current channel (either `stable` or `nightly` ).
* The `--update-to` option has been added allowing the user more control over program upgrades (or downgrades).
* `--update-to` can change the release channel (`stable`, `nightly` ) and also upgrade or downgrade to specific tags.
* **Usage**: `--update-to CHANNEL` , `--update-to TAG` , `--update-to CHANNEL@TAG`
- **YouTube throttling fixes!**
