Hi, currently I am using the Pkg.update() to check for available packages updates. However, Pkg.update() also automatically install the missing updates. Is there a way to check for package updates without installing them?

Thank you for sharing, this feature could be very useful.

Unfortunately, while it works using Julia 1.3.1 or 1.0.5,
it gives the following error with the current version 1.4.2:
ERROR: Could not determine command
(My OS is 64-bit Windows 7.)

Please, could anyone confirm this behaviour?
