258+ ### Does Eget keep track of installed binaries?
259+
260+ Eget does not maintain any sort of manifest containing information about
261+ installed binaries. In general, Eget does not maintain any state across
262+ invocations. However, Eget does support the ` --upgrade-only ` option, which
263+ will first check ` EGET_BIN ` to determine if you have already downloaded the
264+ tool you are trying to install -- if so it will only download a new version if
265+ the GitHub release is newer than the binary on your file system.
