What are you trying to do?
When Jake runs, it should check to see if a newer version of Jake has been released. If a new release exists, prompt the user to upgrade to the latest release. The prompt should include a command to perform the upgrade, e.g. pip install jake --upgrade

some learnings from similar efforts:

provide a way to bypass the check (via CLI flag). see: Disable nancy updates check nancy#217
and skip update check features nancy#218
The ability to skip the check when a given ENV VAR is set is also useful in CI systems.
cache the date/time when the last check was performed, and only check again in say 28 hours.
also include the command to perform the upgrade in the application help (and maybe the README.md?).
