+# Updating the backend
+
+In order to update the backend to a more recent version, do the following:
+1. Go to the DMD submodule:  `cd dm/src/dmd`;
+2. Fetch the latest commits: `git fetch`
+3. Checkout the desired commit, e.g.:
+   - `git checkout origin/master`: Checkout the latest version of the DMD backend;
+   - `git checkout v2.095.0`: Checkout the state of the backend as of DMD v2.095.0;
+   - `git checkout 385312b93`: Checkout the state of the backend as of commit `385312b93`;
+4. Leave the `dmd` repository, e.g. `cd ../../` to come back to the root of this repository;
+5. Commit the change to the submodule: `git add dm/src/dmd && git commit -m "Update DMD backend to master"`
+
+Alternatively, when pulling from this repository, remember to always run `git submodule update --init`
+if the submodule have been updated. This is visible from `git status`:
+```shell
+$ git diff
+diff --git a/dm/src/dmd b/dm/src/dmd
