[swift-build-dev] RFC: Swift Package Manager -- Editable Packages Proposal

[Daniel Dunbar]

I am proposing we change the behavior for iterative development of a group of packages. In particular, we will change the default location to which package dependency sources are cloned, the package managers behavior around those sources, and add a new feature for allowing iterative development. These features are tightly interrelated, which is why they are combined into one proposal.

Proposal here:

Feedback welcome!
