How to update pubspec.yaml on flutter pub upgrade automatically?

Coming from npm, I deeply dislike the way Google handles package updates within Flutter. Instead of updating the pubspec.yaml on flutter pub upgrade, it will only update the pubspec.lock.

To ensure that the pubspec.yaml is up to date, I have to run flutter pub outdated and manually adjust the pubspec.yaml before running flutter pub upgrade. I'm too lazy for that, it's no fun, I want this to be automated. The recommend versions of flutter pub outdated should be set in the pubspec.yaml for me.

How to I do that?

you can use Ctrl+Space after a package name in pubspec.yaml to get the latest version.

you must press Ctrl+Space exactly one space after ' : ' to see the latest version.
