Unwanted dependencies

[Keenan Woodall]

Continuing discussion from #71 where unwanted dependencies are added to the project after installing Deform through the package manager.

I created a blank project on 2021.3.4 and installed Deform via git url. After installing the Deform package I did not get a prompt about installing dependencies nor a log about merging default dependencies. So weird.

This is my manifest

Hey, thanks for looking into this.

Ah, wait, I realized that I made a mistake before. I said that I didn't download it from the Asset Store because I used the Package Manager window to download the files (I think the Asset Store window has been gone for a while). But yes, I guess I was technically using the asset store version rather than the git version. This is under Packages: My Assets rather than Packages: In Project.

Trying the git version now, everything seems fine - I guess there's no import button for git packages, but I can click update, and the project compiles without it forcibly re-installing Unity Ads and the other packages that I was trying to avoid.

I'm not sure why the Asset Store version is giving that prompt. Both of them are version 1.2.1.
