Workers: Better local deployment flow with dashboard settings awareness
Wrangler now displays a helpful diff of local vs remote dashboard settings when deploying a Worker, preventing accidental loss of configuration. It also auto-proceeds with additive-only changes without user interaction.
Until now, if a Worker had been previously deployed via the Cloudflare Dashboard ↗, a subsequent deployment done via the Cloudflare Workers CLI, Wrangler
(through the deploy command), would allow the user to override the Worker's dashboard settings without providing details on
what dashboard settings would be lost.
Now instead, wrangler deploy presents a helpful representation of the differences between the local configuration
and the remote dashboard settings, and offers to update your local configuration file for you.
See example below showing a before and after for wrangler deploy when a local configuration is expected to override a Worker's dashboard settings:

After
Also, if instead Wrangler detects that a deployment would override remote dashboard settings but in an additive way, without modifying or removing any of them, it will simply proceed with the deployment without requesting any user interaction.
Update to Wrangler v4.50.0 or greater to take advantage of this improved deploy flow.
