### Usage
```
Usage: has_update [argument]
-h : This help !
-v : Show both versions (online, and installed)
```
This tool is intended to inform administrator about available update of a
project. You can use it with an external script in a crontab that checks the
ouput of *has_update*. Do not forget, in that case, to not give argument. With
no argument, *has_update* ouputs a message ONLY if an update is available.
```
cd /home/mastodon/live
/srv/toot/tools/has_update
```
