Update compreface to 1.2.0 from 1.1.0 while retaining the face collection data

Hi,
I have been using compreface 1.1.0 on ubuntu. There are plenty of subjects and embeddings in the system.
I want to upgrade to compreface 1.2.0. How do I do that so that existing subjects and embeddings data won't be lost?

Successfully made it.
Earlier I could not find the way. However it was mentioned in the documentation under installation options:

"To update the CompreFace version or change custom build, download new docker-compose.yml and .env files. Stop CompreFace with docker-compose down. Copy new files into the old CompreFace folder. Then run CompreFace with docker-compose up -d"

So I did the same. I just replaced the dockher-compose.yml and .env files in my custom-build "Subcenter-arcface-r100-gpu" directory by downloading these files from 1.2.0 version and ran the commands "docker compose down" and then "docker compose up -d"
All my data retained. All 2.3 million subjects and embeddings and all the applications.
