Updating from v1.125.7 to latest(v1.138) What should I do?

Hello team,
Lately, I have been postponing the upgrade from the above-mentioned version, as there are so many breaking changes currently. Can anyone guide me on the best approach to upload? I am currently building a second PC for backup purposes. Currently, I have backed up with an external HDD the important pictures and database.
I don't want any issues with the upgrade process, but I am okay with the worst case.

.env
You can find documentation for all the supported env variables at https://immich.app/docs/install/environment-variables

The location where your uploaded files are stored

UPLOAD_LOCATION=/mnt/media_root/immich/

The location where your database files are stored

DB_DATA_LOCATION=/mnt/media_root/immich

The Immich version to use. You can pin this to a specific version like "v1.71.0"

IMMICH_VERSION=release

Connection secret for postgres. You should change it to a random password

DB_PASSWORD=postgres

The values below this line do not need to be changed

###################################################################################
DB_USERNAME=postgres
DB_DATABASE_NAME=immich
