Fix managed self-update: refresh metadata and unlock Scoop's install dir#256
Merged
Conversation
Self-update ran the upgrade command against stale metadata, so new versions weren't found. Run an ordered two-step flow instead — refresh then upgrade (`brew update && brew upgrade …`, `scoop update; scoop update …`) — gated so a failed refresh aborts the upgrade, in both the GUI helper and console --update. Also fix the Windows helper failing with "…\current is in use": it inherited the app's own Scoop install dir as working directory. Launch it from TempPath. Update Updates unit tests for the new sequences.
