Can't convince uvx to update program from a local project #16974
Description
Summary
After running a local project with
uvx --from ~/projects/$project $commanduvx caches it ✅
But after changing the source code in ~/projects/$project, uvx still runs the old version. The only way to run the new version was to run uvx -n, but that keeps the old version in the cache. I've also tried:
uvx --refresh ...
No warnings, just uses the old version
uvx -U ... or
uvx -P $project ...
warning: Tools cannot be upgraded via
uvx[...]
Why is it even in the documentation?
--verbose output from uvx --refresh
