It would be great to add a command such as:

:PackerSummary

That command should open a buffer showing all of the installed plugins and their update availability.

Then, after selecting one (or more) plugins with update available (through a binding such as T for toggle), make it possible to manually update them (e.g. binding U).

This is sort of a duplicate of some functionality being worked on in #975, so I don't think a separate new command on top of that is required

pidgeon777 commented 2 years ago

Yes @akinsho, the above proposal sounds even better than mine.

Closing my issue for now 👍.
