+  --skip-package-file     Don't write changes to the package file (*.nimble or
+                          package.json). This is useful mostly in temporary
+                          circumstances where you want to update other source
+                          files without updating the package file. Be careful
+                          in these cases, however, as update_version uses the
+                          current version (as reported in the package file) as
+                          the canonical version. When updating versions in
+                          other source files, update_version ignores lines that
+                          do not match the current version. Consider the
+                          following:
+
+                              update_version set 1.0.4 file1.nim, file2.nim --skip-package-file # works
+                              update_version set 1.0.0 file1.nim, file2.nim --skip-package-file # fails
+
+                          The second command will *not* rewrite the version
+                          strings in file1.nim and file2.nim because the
+                          versions in those files (1.0.4) do not match what is
+                          in the package.
