3 years ago Genereally, I like the idea, except Shift-clicking is a bit hard to discover without prior knowledge.
Another approach would be to make dotnet tool install to behave like dotnet tool update if a tool already exists (dotnet add package already behaves that way). @KathleenDollard, @marcpopMSFT - do you have any input about it?

The Elevator Pitch
I often need to update CLI tools, and I use the nuget.org website to get the command for installing the tool using dotnet. Unfortunately the command is using the dotnet verb "install" instead of "update", which means it fails if the tool is already installed but in another version. It would be great if we could shift click the copy button to get the "update" verb copied instead.
