Include optional flag for mas #16

Closed steakscience closed 3 years ago

Hi there,

First of all, love this repo!

There's a project (mas-cli) that allows Mac App Store apps to be installed and updated from the command line. I think homebrew-autoupdate should add an optional flag (say, --mas) that would run 'mas upgrade' as well.

That way, homebrew-autoupdate can be the one place to auto update and upgrade homebrew, casks, and Mac App Store apps.

Thanks!

Isn't this handled by the App Store's preference "Automatic Updates"? I don't believe there is a functional difference between an app installed by the App Store GUI and the mas-cli tool. I think it is probably better to have the App Store manage its own domain.

True, it'd be nice to have all apps regardless of source updates at once though

Otherwise, it's not a big deal :)
