Add or document switches for fully automated upgrade operation #42

Closed sysfu closed 9 years ago

I'd like to have the ability to upgrade all ports in a fully automated manner without user interaction. Currently I can get close to this using the command

portmaster -aG --no-confirm

...however, the process still halts when asking to delete tarballs such is this message

===>>> Delete Socket-2.016.tar.gz? y/n [n]

I think this problem can be worked around by specifying the -d or -D options.

So a fully automated upgrade of all ports would look something like this:

portmaster -aGD --no-confirm
