#423: add option to fetch a single package without dependencies
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
Reporter: guest | Owner:
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.3.0
Severity: normal | Keywords:
Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.8.3
Platform: |
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
Right now, {{{cabal fetch}}} fetches all missing dependencies of a package
along with its source.
In some cases, in particular when studying code, those dependencies are
not useful. It would be nice to have an option, say {{{--no-deps}}} to
fetch just the specified packages.
(This is related to {{{cabal unpack}}} -- see #390.)
