Aura -Au --git installed all packages as dependencies

aura 4.0.8

Described in title.

It rebuilt a bunch of packages, installed them. When I did sudo pacman -Rcns $(pacman -Qqdt) it removed all of them. Had to reinstall and manually mark them as explicit.

Also, something I don't understand: (in the above scenario for example) why does it insist on recompiling instead of just pacman -U [nameofpackage] which would suffice on the second run as the compiled binary is in the appropriate aura dir since it has been build a few minutes ago... This is a bit off-topic and a separate issue, probably. More important is the main issue.

Thanks for the report, I will double-check the behaviour of --git.

This has happened again on a single package - "non git" called sirikali. It built the package and marked it as a dependency when it's not.

Hm, I thought I had fixed an issue with the install order, which involves a topological sort of the dependency graph, but perhaps there are still some edge cases.
