+The '--nosave' flag prevents adding and deleting specified plugins from
config.xml and package.json. To prevent saving a plugin, you issue the
following command :

+$ cordova plugin add <plugin[@<version>] | directory | git_url> --nosave

Some examples :
- * **'cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-console --save'** => retrieves
the pinned version of the console plugin, adds it to the project and then
updates config.xml.
- * **'cordova plugin add [email protected] --save'** =>
retrieves the android plugin, version 0.2.13 from npm, adds it to the project
and then updates config.xml.
- * **'cordova plugin add
https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-console.git --save'** => clones the
specified console plugin git repository, adds the console plugin to the
project, then updates config.xml and point its version to the specified git-url.
