Issue Summary
Hello,
I am wanting to upgrade from 6.15 to 6.17 and was wondering if you could help me better understand the process.
I read #844802: upgrade drupal 6.16 to 6.17 drush command but had more questions on the process.
I have backed up my robot.txt and .htaccess files as instructed when I ran "drush pm-update drupal", but do I also need to manually backup my Files folder and re-import? Also, how can I re-enable all modules I currently have enabled or do I have to take note which modules I have enabled and manually enable them after the upgrade?
Drush has been a GREAT help so far and I hope to use it to upgrade core drupal soon =)
Thanks!

drush pm-update drupalwill preserve the contents of your sites folder, so if that where you've stored your files folder there is no need to back it up.Also, pm-update will not enable or disable any modules. I know, the instructions on d.o. advise to do this, but the drush maintainers agree that this is not necessary.

Oh, and of course you are always going to run pm-update on a copy of your site first, so you can be sure that it works before you risk the new code on your live server, right? ;)
