command to synchronize installed packages with available ones
Similar to ‘apt-get upgrade’ to upgrade all packages instead of hand picking packages to upgrade.
Also need ‘apk sync-repo’ or similar to change package versions to something that exists at least one repository. Which can end up downgrading experimental packages.

upgrade: new applet
Currently just goes through all world dependencies and updates them
where possible (ref #51).- Revision 3a488564 by Timo Teräs on 2009-06-25T08:09:40Z:
upgrade: add --available option
That will make the upgrade prefer packages available in repositories.
This is good if one want's to downgrade packages by removing an experimental
repository. Or to force re-install of locally built vs. repository version
when the package version are same, but checksum is different. Fixes #51.
