According to the Pkg docs, Pkg.resolve will:

Update the current manifest with potential changes to the dependency graph from packages that are tracking a path.

And the REPL-mode resolve will:

Resolve the project i.e. run package resolution and update the Manifest. This is useful in case the dependencies of developed packages have changed causing the current Manifest to be out of sync.


I believe that the Pkg.resolve docs are insufficient: they should also mention that this will run "package resolution and update the Manifest", it's not just about path-tracking dependencies.

Perhaps the two docs can be the same? I like the REPL-mode docs.
