Hello
I am running my tor relay “torland” on Mac OS X via this guide here https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-doc-osx.html.en
I am wondering, is there a way to configure the tor relaying software to automatically check for software updates and install them automatically if there are any?
Thank you.

Automatic software updates depend on the package manager or the installation method of the tor package. Homebrew seems to have an (auto?) upgrade option called `cask upgrade`.
Hope this helps.

Automatic software updates depend on the package manager or the installation method of the tor package. Homebrew seems to have an (auto?) upgrade option called `cask upgrade`.
The homebrew update command is: brew update && brew upgrade
You should run this command regularly using cron, launchd, or your favourite task scheduler.

Ok, do you know how I could configure this to automatically update my tor software? Thank you.

I think you might have missed my reply:
