Fortunately, that still leaves the option to compile it.

OTOH i quickly checked the repo and the schema didn't change between
0.13.0 and 0.13.1 so the db _layout_ (not content) is compatible between
the versions (i expect it to be for for stable stuff like paths.. some
transformations will probably only work 0.13.0 -> 0.13.1 but not the
other way causing crashes and whatnot). I'd give it a try

I know I keep saying it but: keep a backup when doing stuff like that!
