CpmUpdateTool is a small command‑line utility that inspects a .NET folder's Directory.Packages.props file and updates NuGet package versions to the latest available release.

Usage

Run the tool from a directory containing Directory.Packages.props (typically the repo root):

dotnet update-cpm [solution-file] [options]

Arguments

• solution-file — optionally use the specified solution file when checking for updates

Options

• --yes — update all packages without asking
