A cargo subcommand for checking and applying updates to installed executables
Documentation
cargo-install-update(1) -- Cargo subcommand for checking and applying updates to installed executables
======================================================================================================

## SYNOPSIS

`cargo install-update` [OPTIONS] [PACKAGE...]

## DESCRIPTION

Cargo subcommand for checking and applying updates to installed executables.

This was mostly built out of a frustration with periodically checking for
updates for my cargo-installed executables, which was long and boring.

Updates packages from the main repository and git repositories.

See cargo-install-update-config(1) for further configuring updates.

The `CARGO_INSTALL_OPTS` environment variable can be set,
containing options to forward to the end of `cargo install` invocations'
argument lists.
Note, that cargo-install-update-config(1) is preferred in the general case.

If `cargo-binstall` (>=0.12) is available in the `PATH`,
`-r` was not overriden, `CARGO_INSTALL_OPTS` is empty,
the package is in the default registry, and has no non-default configuration,
it will be used to install the package instead.

Exit values and possible errors:

    -1 - cargo subprocess was terminated by a signal (Linux-only)
    1  - option parsing error
    2  - registry repository error
    X  - bubbled-up cargo install exit value

## OPTIONS

  -a --all

    Update all currently installed executables.

    Required if list of packages not given.

  [PACKAGE...]

    List of packages to update in the [(registry_url):]package_name[:version] format.

    Registry defaults to the default crates.io registry,
    and can be a name from ~/.cargo/config.

    If specified in addition to --all,
    will add the specified packages to the update list
    (useful, e.g., in conjunction with --allow-no-update).

    Required if --all not given.

  -l --list

    Don't update any packages, just list them.

    If PACKAGE is empty, act as if --all was specified.

  -f --force

    Update all packages, regardless of whether they need to be version-wise.

  -d --downdate

    Downdate packages to match the latest unyanked version from the registry.

  -i --allow-no-update

    Allow to fresh install packages passed as PACKAGE argument.

    This is useful, for example, in pairing with cargo-install-update-config(1).

    Off by default.

  -g --git

    Also update git-originating packages.

    Off by default, because it's expensive.

  -q --quiet

    Don't print status messages to stdout
    and pass down --quiet to cargo subprocesses.

  -s --filter <PACKAGE_FILTER>...

    Only consider packages matching all filters.

    PACKAGE_FILTER is in the form "key=value", where key is any of:
      - "toolchain": the package must be configured to be compiled with
                     the specified toolchain via cargo-install-update-config(1).

  -r --install-cargo <CARGO_EXECUTABLE>

    Cargo executable to run for installations.

    *Must* behave indistinguishably from the default cargo
    with regards to on-disk state ("$CARGO_DIR/.crates.toml"
    and installed executables) and the arguments it accepts.

    Required. Default: "cargo"

  -c --cargo-dir <CARGO_DIR>

    Set the directory containing cargo metadata.

    Required. Default: "$CARGO_HOME", then "$HOME/.cargo", otherwise manual.

  -t --temp-dir <TEMP_DIR>

    Set the directory in which to clone git repositories.

    Adjoined with "cargo-update" as last segment.

    Required. Default: system temp, otherwise manual.

## ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

  `$CARGO_NET_GIT_FETCH_WITH_CLI`

    Overrides the net.git-fetch-with-cli Cargo configuration key.

  `$GIT`

    Overrides the git executable in net.git-fetch-with-cli=true mode.
