Description

Hi, can you provide a document that describes how to update a Matomo app running on a container image?

My particular case: I am running Matomo fpm-alpine on an EKS cluster + RDS.

I went from `matomo:5.1.2-fpm-alpine` to `matomo:5.2.2-fpm-alpine` and the UI still requested me to click on the update button.
There is no documentation about how to update a Matomo container using a new image, the closest I could find is this:
https://matomo.org/faq/on-premise/update-matomo/

Imho, his does not make sense, it says it will download new files which we dont need because I already updated the image.

Also, please consider automation/scripting ways of doing it, having to click on a button after updating Matomo docker image breaks CI/CD concept.

Research direction

The issue names no repository file or test; start with the linked Matomo update FAQ and the fpm-alpine version transition described here. Document the container-image update workflow, including the required UI or scripted step for CI/CD, and cover the EKS plus RDS case. Done means a user can follow the documented procedure without guessing whether files must be downloaded.
