Double confirmation when upgrade is combined

[AlexWayfer]

Affected Version

yay v8.998 - libalpm v11.0.1

Issue

Hello!

Can we somehow avoid the double confirmation for combined upgrade? Maybe pass Y answer to pacman.

I want to see colored diff between versions with AUR packages, but I don't want to make the second confirmation for colorless pacmans table.

Thanks.

Personally I like it currently. It acts as the final step where yay starts the build install process. It also allows me to check what yay says is gonna happen vs what pacman says is gonna happen. Although that might just be useful for bug testing more than actual use.

On a more technical level I don't think we can hide it. That menu can contain prompts for replaces, conflicts, ignorepkg, ect. We can't just hide the main output and show the prompts and we can't just use --noconfirm/--ask because then it takes choice away from the user.

OK. You can close this issue if you can't do this technically without loosing important prompts (and can't pull them to yay).

Closing this as we already tried handling some of this stuff ourselves but it's not actionable if you want to keep yay a pacman wrapper instead of a pacman
