I think the idea of having to modify your build file for every dependency change kinda stinks, in my mind, the gulp file should point at a folder and just pull everything in from it... sorta like it does now :)\r\n\r\nLet's play this out a bit:\r\n\r\nA user adds a new dep inside of their bower_components, they now have to go into the gulp file, change this, and then restart their watcher. \r\n\r\nIf they forget to do any of the above steps things will not work and I think it will be confusing, and thus cause upstream issues to be filed. \r\n\r\nThe point of a build file in my mind is something that you setup and do not have to think about in your normal dev flow... in a way this change totally breaks that mentality. \r\n\r\n\r\n-------\r\n\r\nOnto your argument --- by using files right out of bower_components we are causing some people issues when they try and deploy, since many sites just ignore bower_components... You are right ... this totally stinks, however There is an entire suite of tools to bundle up your webapp and push it to N services ... aka this is a deployment problem not a dev (buildfile) problem\r\n\r\nSooo for now I am -1 to this PR landing, instead I would love to see some work around a better \"ship\" experience. \r\n\r\nThanks a ton for your work on this @rubenstolk it is really appreciated "}}
