NuGet UI in Visual Studio should offer multiple choice options in consolidate tab #7318

Open bondarenkod opened 6 years ago

bondarenkod commented 6 years ago

The Consolidate Tab experience in the PMC (Package Manager Console) is inconvenient and requeues tons of time and attention from me because I have to upgrade packages in my solutions from time to time. All those operations can be done only manually - I have to wait until the Consolidate Tab updates it's information about packages in the solution, the I have to select any single package which I want to update then, press the "update" button and wait for a long time, then I have to repeat this for all listed packages in the tab - 72 times now, and it's only for this solution. Unfortunately, I can't updated all packages to the latest versions because some of those packages aren't compatible with PCL projects.

I think all items in the Consolidate Tab should have [ ] check boxes to allow multi select them, as it is now in the Updates tab: consolidate tab

Also I tried this possible solution described here, but I got the next error: consolidate tab

@anangaur since he's working on consolidating the NuGet UI in general.

Please make this a feature, we are constantly trapped in update/consolidate hell 😢

anangaur commented 5 years ago

There is another feature where we are attempting to make the management of package version a central phenomenon i.e either at a Solution or a repository level. Though not scheduled to be implemented immediately but something we would like to start on, soon. Do review the spec and provide your feedback: https://github.com/NuGet/Home/wiki/Centrally-managing-NuGet-package-versions
