Most software notifies users when a new version is available and allows them to choose whether to update or ignore it. To my knowledge, jdeploy currently does not offer this option. Instead, it performs automatic updates when the application starts. For small updates, this process is so quick that users may not even realize an update has occurred.
However, some users are hesitant to use software that updates itself without explicit notice. It would be beneficial if jdeploy displayed a prompt on startup, informing users about the available update and providing a link to the corresponding code on GitHub. Let them choose if they want to update now or do it later. This approach would give users a greater sense of control and help build trust.
