The propose
command can be used to see what adding a new package might do. Since adding a package can cause the exact versions of some already installed packages to change, it can be useful to try a dry-run and see exactly what a new addition will do.
Using the --version VERSION
switch will perform the analysis only with the specified version. (This can be faster if the specified version is already in the local cache since Nu will not need to query the remote server for the latest available version.)
The --json
switch will cause Nu to return a JSON encoded object describing the proposed final state of the lib folder and listing any conflicts found.
