Add ability to generate a ContributesBinding baseline? about anvil HOT 6 OPEN

tbh this is probably a non-starter. See google/ksp#1677

from anvil.

is baseline the right word for this? Seems more like something similar to compose's compiler reports.

Sidenote - BindingModuleGenerator.kt is going away soon

I wanted to call it baseline because like Android lint or dependency-guard, I'd want to see in source control that my baseline changed.

This is because it's so easy to introduce a replaces and have no idea it's happening.

I was on a project previously where an important upgrade checking feature was being replaced by a fake implementation and it was undiscovered for a year.

For my use case, a report could be useful, but wouldn't help me automatically detect these sorts of changes.

So you want something like a lock file for replacements?

Yes, and for ordering/priority.

Thanks for linking that issue. Makes sense, but that's unfortunate.
