Hi,

What is the purpose of the "install" command's "--only" flag? The
documentation says "Only installs the package in the current
directory", but this is already supported by running "cabal install"
in the current directory without arguments.

Before installing the package in the current directory, "cabal install" resolves, downloads, builds and installs dependencies. So "cabal install" is not at all the same as "cabal install --only".
