Composer Cache

[Toflar]

The Composer cache should probably live within the tenside directory, otherwise it might conflict with a cache directory of an arbitrary project.

Well, it is the cache, the cache should be the same across ALL installations for maximum benefit.

In the end, you most likely do not want to download the same package list over and over again when updating multiple installations let alone download the zip files etc. more than once.

I have many installations at my place and they all share the same cache folder in my user home and therefore speeding up installations.

I wonder why there should arise conflicts. Can you please elaborate on problems you experienced?

This is what happens. See the cache folder on top level? What if the application you execute a create-project from already has a cache folder on top level? Imho the cache folder of composer should go to the tenside folder because Tenside manages it.
