shep this has prompted me to look at the updater though, and I think it can be improved. It is unnecessarily trying to rewrite `.htaccess` files inside preserved folders like `/data` (which aren't touched during an update anyway). If those files are read-only, it could trigger a rollback.
I'll update the logic so it ignores preserved folders and skips rewriting identical files. This will be in the next release. (https://kevquirk.com/comments/comment.php?id=973)
