Got an email saying that 14.5-RELEASE is up for grabs.

But I just ran freebsd-update fetch, and it says no updates needed to update system to 14.4-RELEASE-p9.

But I can see kernel github branch for releng/14.5.

freebsd-update upgrade -r 14.5-RELEASE

I guess

So I can't first fetch it and then upgrade it?

Oh, sorry, I'm slow today. I just do install afterwards.

Don't worry. Happens to everyone.
