Does dart pub upgrade, upgrades all dependencies or we have to manually change for those who got breaking changes?

Suppose I have analyzer package that is a transitive dependency set to 2.8.0^ and latest version 3.0.0 is available.So using dart pub upgrade will upgrade it or I have to manually make it ^3.0.0 in pubspec.yaml and then run pub get

It will automatically update the dependencies when you use dart pub upgrade

If there is a dependency say ^2.7.0 with you and there is a newer version (2.8.0) available, it will automatically upgrade to ^2.8.0 unless there is any dependency constraints.

You could use dart pub upgrade --major-versions so that ^2.8.0 can be upgraded to ^3.0.0.

Anyway you'll be suggested to use this command when using dart pub upgrade

I was upgrading webview_flutter from ^2.8.0 to 3.0.0:

  1. I had to run dart pub upgrade (checked what new dependencies are there).
  2. It suggested me to run dart pub outdated.
  3. I saw webview_flutter was not upgraded.
  4. It suggested me to run dart pub upgrade --major-versions.
  5. I did it, and the version upgraded in .yaml file

Look here for more about the command.
