feature: allow tracking of custom depot paths #692

@uncomfyhalomacro

Description

@uncomfyhalomacro

Scenario

Some users use a custom depot path for Julia using the JULIA_DEPOT environmental variable.

Rationale

Regardless of the reason, juliaup should track custom depot paths to allow flexible configuration and managing of julia versions on customized setups.

Use cases

  • Self uninstalling of ~/.julia/juliaup and custom depots e.g. $JULIA_DEPOT/juliaup as mentioned in Should we delete .julia/juliaup at uninstall? #457
  • A saved data (maybe as JSON?) of tracked custom depots for users to clean up for uncommon cases such as a broken juliaup installation.
  • Customized setups where littering the HOME directory is not desirable.
