Request: Equivalent of Yaourt's PKGBUILD Option: -Pi
Build package from PKGBUILD found in a local directory.. −i, −−install Also install the package.
This would be very useful. When maintaining AUR packages it's easy to end up with a PKGBUILD that works due to the local environment but fails in a clean environment.
As an example, having GOPATH exported via my shell config masked the mistake I corrected here: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=oragono&id=1cca626ee40d76faf1d70bf3428e6d892fb82ea1
But I only found the problem after pushing a broken PKGBUILD when I used yay to reinstall the package.
I am looking for a more general ability to install from any vcs similar to python pip's https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/installing-packages/#installing-from-vcs which looks for setup.py instead of PKGBUILD.
my first try not knowing it is not supported was "yay -U" - as it us used to install a local pkg file.

I'm not sure if this issue is the same as #647, but if it is, then I would be very interested in it because I'm in the exact same situation as in #647.
paru has an experimental feature it is what you expect?
