Topgrade

Keeping your system up to date mostly involves invoking more than a single package manager. This usually results in big shell one-liners saved in your shell history. Topgrades tries to solve this problem by detecting which tools you use and invoke their appropriate package managers.

Installation

You can either use cargo install or use the compiled binaries from the release page.

Usage

Just invoke topgrade. It will invoke the following steps:

• Check if the following paths are tracked by Git. If so, pull them:
