# Examples
* Recreate the lock file (i.e. update all inputs) and commit the new

```console
nix flake update: Recreate the lock file This is probably what most people expect it to do. Fixes #3781. There is a new command 'nix flake lock' that has the old behaviour of 'nix flake update', i.e. it just adds missing lock file entries unless overriden using --update-input.

This command recreates the lock file of a flake (`flake.lock`), thus
updating the lock for every mutable input (like `nixpkgs`) to its
