UpgradeVerb: write deprecation notice by derrickstolee · Pull Request #1747 · microsoft/VFSForGit (original) (raw)

We removed the old upgrader in #1746 but delayed creating its replacement.

The plan was to use winget upgrade, but it is only experimental right now. Further, we would need to use winget list to determine if we needed winget install instead, and winget list is also experimental. The tool needs to mature more before we can create a dependency on it.

Instead, warn a user that tries to upgrade with gvfs upgrade that this CLI is no longer supported and instead point them to the repository's README which can help with the latest update.
