Description
`stack upgrade --git` requires a Git installation to clone the stack repo. If we'd instead download https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/archive/master.zip we could do without git (as long as stack's stack.yaml doesn't have any extra-deps with git locations).
If the `--git` flag is confusing for that mode, maybe we could call it `--dev`.
