NAME
       dnf5-upgrade - Upgrade Command

SYNOPSIS
       dnf5 upgrade [options]
       [<package-spec>|@<group-spec>|@<environment-spec>...]

DESCRIPTION
       The upgrade command in DNF5 is used for upgrading installed packages,
       groups or environments to newer available version.

       Since groups and environments are not versioned the upgrade basically
       means a synchronization with the currently available definition. In
       addition group upgrade also upgrades all packages the group contains
       and environment upgrade also upgrades all groups the environment
       contains.
