DragonFly 6.2.1 is released - here's the release page:

https://www.dragonflybsd.org/release62/

6.2.0 was never released cause I screwed up tagging, so you can go right
from 6.0 to 6.2.1.  Here's the 6.2.1 tag with a list of the commits since
5.8:

https://lists.dragonflybsd.org/pipermail/commits/2022-January/820802.html

The normal ISO and IMG files are available for download and install,
plus an uncompressed ISO image for those installing remotely.

If updating from an older version of DragonFly, bring in the 6.2 source:

> cd /usr/src
> git fetch origin
> git branch DragonFly_RELEASE_6_2 origin/DragonFly_RELEASE_6_2
> git checkout DragonFly_RELEASE_6_2
> git pull

And then rebuild: (still in /usr/src)
> make build-all
> make install-all
> make upgrade

After your next reboot, you can optionally update your rescue system:

(reboot)
> cd /usr/src
> make initrd

Don't forget to upgrade your existing packages if you haven't recently:

> pkg update
> pkg upgrade
