If I understand you correctly, you have package A-1.0 installed from
repo "poudriere" and now you have package A-1.1 in repo "gitlab" and you
want to upgrade this package "A" to version 1.1.
Is it right?
I think that crossrepo upgrade is not automatic if package is in both
repositories but it work if package is missing from previous repo and it
it intentional.
I have more repositories too (different PHP version, different python
versions but common utilities etc.) so packages are not unintentionally
upgraded / downgraded.
But if you want to upgrade package A from different repo, you can choose
the repo:
-r reponame, --repository reponame
Install packages from only the named repository, irrespective
of the configured ``active'' status from repo.conf.
You can try
pkg install -r gitlab -f A
or
pkg upgrade -r gitlab -f A
where A is you package(s) name.
