ncu (npm-check-updates) can upgrade package.json dependencies to the latest versions.

By default it upgrades to the latest available. To stay within the same major version (e.g. 1.2 to 1.3 but not 2.3), use the options below.

To upgrade only to minor versions (ignoring major new versions, with breaking changes) with ncu --target minor (or ncu -t minor).

Upgrade only patch versions with ncu -t patch.

taze is a similar tool.

Use it as taze minor to bump to latest minor changes within the same major version.

Or if you prefer, taze major will check all changes and bump to the latest stable changes including majors.

Patch updates, use taze patch.
