Synced Versions

Exploded orthographic engraving of pruning shears beside a dial gauge labelled sync, the needle at twelve o'clock.

The default version mode tracks the upstream default branch. For dependencies already installed in the current project, synced mode is usually better:

Terminal window
ingraft add effect --version synced

Synced mode reads the project dependency graph, resolves the installed package version, and tries to map that package version to source:

  • npm-style manifests and lockfiles.
  • Package manager lock data when present.
  • Git tags such as v3.21.2 or 3.21.2.
  • Provider release metadata when available.
  • A precise commit when the dependency itself is git-based.

The selected version is stored with vendor metadata so future refreshes can tell whether local source still matches the dependency version.

Terminal window
ingraft refresh
ingraft doctor
