You can put a version file in the root of download directory and check if current installed ollama has an identical version, for example.

@dhiltgen commented on GitHub (Jul 24, 2024):

I've seen some users wind up with a corrupt install, and re-running the install with the same version can clear that up. At this time, I don't think it makes sense to bypass installing if the version is unchanged.

What I would suggest is if you are trying to automate/script a system and prevent no-op upgrades, use something like curl -i https://ollama.com/download/ollama-linux-amd64 and check the redirect location for the version string, and compare that against ollama --version
