Can this cli extension generate a package.xml as output of the dependency analysis? #15

Can this cli extension generate a package.xml as output of the dependency analysis? It will be a very useful tool for developers to specify e.g. a lightning component or an apex class or VF page in command line and get a package.xml generated for all of its dependencies so they can just run retrieve using that package.xml and move those components from one org to the other.

@vekbote What you are looking for is known as a "deployment boundary", which is supported by a similar open-source project HappySoup.io

If you want to use it in the command line you can use the NPM package version of the same
