title: Should I stop node server before a git push? Can I update node on Openshift?
body: <h1>Dear community!</h1>
  
  <p>I have a few questions regarding my Openshift site with Node.js.<br>
   I'm kind of starting out so please be simplistic and clear. </p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><p><strong><em>Am I supposed to stop server.js on Openshift before a git push?</em></strong><br>
  I'm asking this, because sometimes it takes so long to complete a git push or it doesn't even complete so I stop it after 5 or so mins. </p></li>
  <li><p><strong><em>Can I update node and/or npm?</em></strong><br>
  <code>Node: v0.10.35</code>, <code>npm: 1.4.28</code>. The current versions on my mac is <code>node: v5.3.0</code> and <code>npm: 3.5.2</code>. I'd really like to update, but couldn't find anything to get started. </p></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Please clear my head if I shouldn't do this or point me in the direction if it's possible. </p>
