The specific question is:
Can stack be queried to display the location of the source folder (meaning,
where it is stored locally) for any given package in the current project's
build plan?
(And the unspecific question is whether this is a good idea.)
For example:
# stack.yaml
resolver: lts-12.0
packages:
- .
- location:
git: ...
commit: ...
extra-dep: true
subdirs:
- bar
Can stack tell me where the `bar` package source has been downloaded to? (
Current answer would probably be ./.stack-work/downloads/$SOME_HASH/bar/,
discovering $SOME_HASH being the difficult part, esp. if stack has
downloaded multiple commits from this repo over time.)
If this cannot already be done with the existing CLI, perhaps it would be
worthwhile to open a feature request. It seems like the sort of capability
one might expect to find under `stack path`.
