How to solve raspberry pi failing to update because of repository suite value

Today I learned a new thing trying to install Tailscale on the Raspberry Pi machine responsible for running Pihole.

Part of the install script involves doing an apt-get update. On running the command, I would get:

E: Repository 'http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian buster InRelease' changed its 'Suite' value from 'testing' to 'stable'
N: This must be accepted explicitly before updates for this repository can be applied. See apt-secure(8) manpage for details.

After a bit of digging, I saw a blog post on kraaima.com that describes the solution:

sudo apt-get update --allow-releaseinfo-change

This will bypass the error message listed above.

After that, we do an upgrade:

sudo apt-get upgrade

After this, updates & upgrades should resume regular working operation.
