Versions

Angular CLI: local 6.0.7, global 6.0.8
Node: 10.4.1
OS: darwin x64
Angular: 6.0.5

Repro steps

check which packages are available

ng update
    We analyzed your package.json, there are some packages to update:
    
      Name                               Version                  Command to update
     --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      @angular/cli                       6.0.7 -> 6.0.8           ng update @angular/cli
    
    
    There might be additional packages that are outdated.
    Or run ng update --all to try to update all at the same time.

run update command as printed above

ng update @angular/cli
            Found a modern configuration file. Nothing to be done.

Nothing happened

Workaround

explicitly specify the version you are coming from

ng update @angular/cli --from=6.0.7

Desired functionality

either print command with --from or make it work without --from

Hi @dominikg ,

I cannot reproduce this on my machine. From a new project:

Could you provide a project example so we can clone and have a starting point to investigate? Thanks.

[dominikg]

global versions:

Angular CLI: 6.0.8
Node: 10.6.0
OS: darwin x64

repro script:

# use [email protected] to create new project
npx -p @angular/[email protected] ng new updateme

cd updateme

# new created the project with [email protected] installed locally (due to ^6.0.7 in package.json) so downgrade local cli to 6.0.7
npm install -D @angular/[email protected]

# now try to update to 6.0.8
ng update @angular/cli
