Move large amount of custom addons to a different folder

Question

I need to move my custom addons to a different folder and upgrade some of them in the process. I'm wondering what are the risk involved and what to do to prevent Odoo from breaking..
Do I need to keep existing __pycache__ or I could just clone fresh repository from Git (without pycache)?

Previously when I tired to move and upgrade many addons at the same time Odoo didn't handle it very well and basically broke and I had to fallback to the old folder. I feel like Odoo tried to compile to many addons at the same time and whole process stopped.

Hey Marcus,
You may try the below steps:
1. Commit all your custom addons to Github.
2. Stop the Odoo server running on your server
3. Create a directory where you want to place your custom addons
4. Take a clone of your custom addons from GitHub to your newly created directory
5. Copy the path of your newly created directory and update odoo.conf file
6. Start your Odoo server
7. In case of any errors, you may check the logs using the below command
tail -f /var/log/odoo/odoo-server.log
Thanks
