If I try `lein ancient` after incorporating `lein-tools-deps` in my `project.clj` it always tells me that the artifacts are up-to-date. What do I need to do to get `lein ancient` work with `lein-tools-deps`? Thanks.

@dorab because with `lein-tools-deps` you're storing your deps in deps.edn, I'd recommend you use a tool that targets deps.edn directly. So far I only know of https://github.com/Olical/depot, but it works great
