@hdnet/list-update-hints v0.0.2

HDNET list-update-hints

This npm package lists custom update hints to updatable npm packages in your repo. In a custom package.json.md file you can define some information about updatable dependencies. You can use it for i.e.

• information about updates that are not made too easily
• hints about steps to apply when updating a dependency
• notes to fixed package versions
• important notes about a custom update routine
• ...

The entries must appear after a title Update Hints and follow the syntax:

- `<package>` some info about the update of the package

If you then run hdnet-list-update-hints, the script will list available updates using npm outdated and join the in information hints you provided within a simple table.
