 If you're migrating a site already using Minimal Mistakes and haven't customized any of the theme files things upgrading will be easier for you.
 
-Start by removing `_includes`, `_layouts`, `_sass`, `assets` folders and all files within. You won't need these anymore as they're bundled with the theme gem.

+
+From `v4.5.0` onwards, you don't have to maintain a copy of the default data files viz. `_data/ui-text.yml` and `_data/navigation.yml` either.
+The default files are read-in automatically via the [`jekyll-data`](https://github.com/ashmaroli/jekyll-data) plugin.
 
 If you customized any of these files leave them alone, and only remove the untouched ones. If done correctly your modified versions should [override](http://jekyllrb.com/docs/themes/#overriding-theme-defaults) the versions bundled with the theme and be used by Jekyll instead.
 
 #### Update Gemfile
 
-Replace `gem "github-pages` or `gem "jekyll"` with `gem "jekyll", "~> 3.3.0"`. You'll need the latest version of Jekyll[^update-jekyll] for Minimal Mistakes to work and load all of the theme's assets properly, this line forces Bundler to do that.
