Update for changes to Angular CLI 8.0.3 which require clean git status about angular-update-guide HOT 3 CLOSED

Fixed in f7c5581

from angular-update-guide.

For version 8.2 to version 9:

• Run ng update @angular/core@8 @angular/cli@8 in your workspace directory to update to the latest 8.x version of @angular/core and @angular/cli and commit these changes.

• Run ng update @angular/core @angular/cli --next. This step may require the --force flag if any of your third-party dependencies have not updated the Angular version of their peer dependencies.

• Your project has now been updated to TypeScript 3.6, read more about new compiler checks and errors that might require you to fix issues in your code.

• Run ng update @angular/material --next. This step may require the --force flag if any of your third-party dependencies have not updated the Angular version of their peer dependencies.

The first one mentions committing, the second doesn't, thus the 4th will fail due to a dirty workspace if the instructions are followed.

For version 7 to version 8.2

• Update to version 8 of the core framework and CLI by running ng update @angular/cli @angular/core in your terminal

...

• Update Angular Material to version 8 by running ng update @angular/material in your terminal.

There is no mention of the need to commit changes. So a user following the guide will see the update to @angular/material fail due to a dirty workspace.
