aurman: Synchronize and update all packages.
$ aurman --sync --refresh --sysupgrade
try on your machine

This command is used to update and upgrade packages in an Arch Linux system using the package manager called aurman. Let's break down each component:

  1. aurman: This is the name of the package manager program being executed. AUR (Arch User Repository) packages can be managed with this command-line tool.

  2. --sync: This option is used to synchronize the package databases, ensuring that the locally available package information is up to date.

  3. --refresh: With this option, aurman will fetch the latest package information from the remote repositories, enabling you to make sure you have the most recent versions of packages available.

  4. --sysupgrade: This option performs a system upgrade, which means it upgrades all installed packages to their latest available versions.

By combining these options together, the command aurman --sync --refresh --sysupgrade will update the package databases, refresh the package information from remote repositories, and then upgrade all installed packages to their latest versions.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
