I am missing today, too much things to do moving across country. I have a question: is there any guidelines to up date tools versions in modules?

I would install dev in modules
I usually do this in modules:
Copy code
pipx install --force git+<https://github.com/nf-core/tools.git@dev>
and I match the version when I work on a pipeline
I could probably be smarter and work with some envs

i meant, if I want to bump the version of the tool that is used in a module. there is any thing to consider? there are some modules that are using some old versions but I am not sure things to consider to have anew docker image with new version of the tool and then bump the module version as well. or it is fine, because pipeline's maintainers will update the module when they want, even if there are new versions

Oh I see. I would say, update the tools whenever. If people update the modules but want to keep behind in their pipeline, they can still patch modules, or even rewrite the containers/conda declarations

yeah, just update modules whatever. And it needs to be a very high bar for me to consider making a new module with e.g.
