Update command for mvnvm
Issue #19
wontfix
Make it possible form mvnvm to update itself in a single command. I'm not sure if this is even possible in bash but I feel like it should be. Otherwise, maybe make a separate command to get it to upgrade itself. The very last option might be to get mvnvm included in package repositories like homebrew so that it is automatically updated for most people.

a package manager like brew is a much better bet IMO

Use brew if you're on OSX or create an issue for your specific platform.

This is something that I've been thinking about for a while so I have some thoughts on it already: 1) It could be done in bash but it would be a little tricky. 2) How often would you check? Checking each run would not really be that nice. 3) How would auto update work with the home brew updates?
It might be part of a different approach to how its distributed and installed. If we want to support extra binaries (mvnDebug, for example) then we will need something more than just shell script.
