request: ignored packages should not be linked in pubspec_overrides.yaml

[kuhnroyal]

Is there an existing feature request for this?

• I have searched the existing issues.

Command

melos bs

Description

If there are packages ignored in the config file

ignore:
  - dio_web_adapter

or passed to the bootstrap command via --ignore=dio_web_adapter, they are still linked into other packages via pubspec_overrides.yaml.

I think these ignored packages should be ignored everywhere.

Reasoning

I am ignoring packages to well... ignore them.
If they are still path linked into other packages, something will likely fail.

Additional context and comments

In v7.0.0 the pubspec_overrides aren't used anymore and bootstrap isn't handling the linking. Possibly it needs to fix which packages that it runs the hooks on though, if you're saying the ignore flag isn't having any effect.

I just tried, and exec etc works, so I'll close this since pub workspaces is responsible for the dependency resolution now.
