Updates an application or runtime. NAME is the
name of an installed application or runtime. Optionally,
BRANCH can be specified to update a
branch other than the default "master" branch.
By default this looks for both installed apps and runtime
with the given NAME, but you can
limit this by using the --app or --runtime option.
Normally, this command updates the application to the tip
of its branch. But it is possible to check out another commit,
with the --commit option.
Note that updating a is different from installing
a different branch, and runtime updates are expected to keep
strict compatibility. If an application update does cause
a problem, it is possible to go back to the previous
version, with the --commit option.
Unless overridden with the --user option, this command updates
a system-wide installation.
OptionsThe following options are understood:
Show help options and exit.
Update a per-user installation.
Update a system-wide installation.
The architecture to update for.
Update to this commit, instead of the tip of the branch.
Download the latest version, but don't deploy it.
Don't download the latest version, deploy it whatever is locally availiable.
Only look for an app with the given name.
Only look for an runtime with the given name.
Print debug information during command processing.
Print version information and exit.
