I've looked through the repository and realized I've never actually seen this proposed either in issue or pull request form.
Some package managers use
uninstall
as the convention for removing/uninstalling dependencies, and as a result I've found myself in the habit of typingcomposer uninstall (packagename)
instead ofcomposer remove (packagename)
.Composer doesn't currently handle this all that gracefully...it suggests "Did you mean install/reinstall?" without suggesting the actual proper
remove
command.I think, perhaps to save folks like me the trouble, Composer can follow in the footsteps of package managers like NPM and make
remove
anduninstall
refer to the same command, so there's no retyping involved if you slip up and forget which is which.
