Composer is a popular tool many PHP developers use to define which packages they need in their projects. The composer tool can install those packages and any other dependent packages.
When a project's packages are updated, the composer tool can retrieve the new versions and update the project environment with those new ones.
Updating a project with new package versions may take a long time if a project is complex and needs many packages with a new version.
Updating a project with the new package versions in a production environment may cause the application to break since the composer cannot update all packages simultaneously.
This package provides an alternative solution to update the new versions of packages of a project in a way that does not cause the application to break.
It creates a new project vendor directory in a working directory. In the end, this package replaces the old vendor directory with the new vendor directory that has the updated versions of the project's packages.
