updating
Bringing information forward
Updating is making something current by adding new information or replacing outdated elements.
Software updates fix bugs or add features.
You might update a résumé before applying for jobs, or update someone on recent developments: Let me update you on what happened at the meeting.
The noun update refers to the new information itself or the act of providing it.
