By default, running with
--createShortcutwill create shortcuts in each specified location. Running it again after a user has explicitly deleted a shortcut will result in the shortcut being re-created. If the user has deleted one of these shortcuts, Squirrel should be able to optionally not recreate them in order to respect the user's decision to delete. Because the calculation of shortcut paths and details is handled within Squirrel, this should be handled by Squirrel itself rather than by Squirrel apps.CreateShortcutsForExecutablehas an option to "onlyUpdate" shortcuts (i.e. skipping if the shortcut does not already exist), this change exposes this option to the CLI as a flag.This is intended to resurrect #1368 which has gone out of date.
This impacts the following issues: #1050, #831 and potentially enables a solution for multiple other shortcut related issues (see references in linked issues).
