apt-get: upgrade vs dist-upgrade

[Mark Wagnon <mwagnon1@home.com>]

I can't remember where I read it, but I read that, in reference to
potato, to keep an installation up-to-date one should run apt-get
with the upgrade option and with the dist-upgrade option. Is this
true? I ran apt-get dist-upgrade when I moved from slink to potato,
but since, I've just used the upgrade option to apt-get. Am I doing
it wrong? Oh, I remember now, it was on the svlug list. I'l check to
see if I can find the original post.

TIA for any clarification.
