NAME

       App::Pinto::Command::update - update packages to latest versions

VERSION

       version 0.14

SYNOPSIS

         pinto --root=REPOSITORY_ROOT update [OPTIONS] TARGET ...

DESCRIPTION

       !! THIS COMMAND IS EXPERIMENTAL !!!

       This command updates packages in your repository to the newer versions in an updstream
       repository.  By default, Pinto takes the first newer version that it finds.  If the
       "--cascade" option is used, then Pinto will take the newest version it finds among all the
       upstream repositories.

COMMAND ARGUMENTS

       Arguments are the names of the pakcages you want to install.  If using the "--all" or
       "--roots" options then arguments are not allowed.

       You can also pipe arguments to this command over STDIN.  In that case, blank lines and
       lines that look like comments (i.e. starting with "#" or ';') will be ignored.  If using
       the "--all" or "--roots" options, then input will not be read from STDIN.

COMMAND OPTIONS

       --all
           Update all distributions in the stack.  We do not attempt to update locally added
           distributions unless "--force" is used.  If this option is used, then package names
           cannot be given as command arguments.  See also the "--roots" option.

       --cascade
           !! THIS OPTION IS EXPERIMENTAL !!

           When searching for a package (or one of its prerequisites), always take the latest
           satisfactory version of the package found amongst all the upstream repositories,
           rather than just taking the first newer version that is found.  Remember that Pinto
           only searches the upstream repositories when the local repository does not already
           contain a satisfactory version of the package.

       --diff-style=STYLE
           Controls the style of the diff reports.  STYLE must be either "concise" or "detailed".
           Concise reports show only one record for each distribution added or deleted.  Detailed
           reports show one record for every package added or deleted.

           The default style is "concise".  However, the default style can changed by setting the
           "PINTO_DIFF_STYLE" environment variable to your preferred STYLE.  This variable
           affects the default style for diff reports generated by all other commands too.

       --dry-run
           Go through all the motions, but do not actually commit any changes to the repository.
           At the conclusion, a diff showing the changes that would have been made will be
           displayed.  Use this option to see how upgrades would potentially impact the stack.

       --force
           Forcibly unpin any packages that require updating.  The pins will not be restored
           after a succesful update.

       --no-fail
           !! THIS OPTION IS EXPERIMENTAL !!

           Normally, failure to pull a target (or its prerequisites) causes the command to
           immediately abort and rollback the changes to the repository. But if C <--no-fail> is
           set, then only the changes caused by the failed target (and its prerequisites) will be
           rolled back and the command will continue processing the remaining targets.

           This option is useful if you want to throw a list of targets into a repository and see
           which ones are problematic.  Once you've fixed the broken ones, you can throw the
           whole list at the repository again.

       --message=TEXT
       -m TEXT
           Use TEXT as the revision history log message.  If you do not use the "--message"
           option or the "--use-default-message" option, then you will be prompted to enter the
           message via your text editor.  Use the "PINTO_EDITOR" or "EDITOR" or "VISUAL"
           environment variables to control which editor is used.  A log message is not required
           whenever the "--dry-run" option is set, or if the action did not yield any changes to
           the repository.

       --pin
           Pins the packages to the stack, so they cannot be changed until you unpin them.  Only
           the packages in the requested targets will be pinned -- packages in prerequisites will
           not be pinned.  However, you may pin them separately with the pin command if you so
           desire.

       --recurse
       --no-recurse
           Recursively pull any distributions required to satisfy prerequisites for the targets.
           The default value for this option can be configured in the pinto.ini configuration
           file for the repository (it is usually set to 1).  To disable recursion, use
           "--no-recurse".

       --roots
           Updates the root distributions of the stack.  We do not attempt to update locally
           added distributions unless "--force" is used.  If this option is used, then package
           names cannot be given as command arguments.  See also the "--all" option.

       --skip-missing-prerequisite=PACKAGE
       -k PACKAGE
           !! THIS OPTION IS EXPERIMENTAL !!

           Skip any prerequisite with name PACKAGE if a satisfactory version cannot be found.
           However, a warning will be given whenever this occurrs.  This option only has effect
           when recursively fetching prerequisites for the targets (See also the "--recurse"
           option). This option can be repeated.

       --skip-all-missing-prerequisites
       -K  !! THIS OPTION IS EXPERIMENTAL !!

           Skips all missing prerequisites if a satisfactory version cannot be found.  However, a
           warning will be given whenever this occurrs.  This option will silently override the
           "--skip-missing-prerequisite" option and only has effect when recursively fetching
           prerequisites for the targets (See also the "--recurse" option).

       --stack=NAME
       -s NAME
           Puts all the packages onto the stack with the given NAME.  Defaults to the name of
           whichever stack is currently marked as the default stack.  Use the stacks command to
           see the stacks in the repository.

       --use-default-message
       -M  Use the default value for the revision history log message.  Pinto will generate a
           semi-informative log message just based on the command and its arguments.  If you set
           an explicit message with "--message", the "--use- default-message" option will be
           silently ignored.

       --with-development-prerequisites
       --wd
           Also pull development prerequisites so you'll have everything you need to work on
           those distributions, in the event that you need to patch them in the future.  Be aware
           that most distributions do not actually declare their development prerequisites.
