[Feature] Add `--dev` flag if dependencies can't be found #253

Open mrcjkb opened 1 month ago

Some non-dev rocks might have dependencies listed that only exist in the dev manifest. It might be a good idea to check install errors for dependencies not being found, and re-run with --dev.

I'm not 100 % sure how I feel about this. Ideally, rocks that depend on something unstable shouldn't have stable releases.

~I'd propose YAGNI for now.~

For reference: This would allow plugins that depend on other plugins that only have an scm release to have a SemVer version. https://github.com/sindrets/diffview.nvim/pull/320

The question is, should plugins that have unstable dependencies have unstable releases?
