Our current top crasher is an unclear error when ProcessManager fails to resolve an executable path. To fix this, we'd like to being adjusting the process resolution logic and adding more instrumentation to track failures. In order to begin the process, the ProcessManager has been folded back into the flutter tool
The tool observes a large number of unhandled exceptions during the file copy portion of flutter create. it is difficult to tell whether the permission issue is caused by the source/destination, or whether it is due to a bug in dart:io.
To work around this, implement a permission check for both the source and dest files. If either fails, the tool can exit with a more specific message.
If these checks pass, then perform the actual copy. If the copy fails, fallback to manually copying the bytes
There have been some more additional reports of a missing 'package:characters' import after upgrading flutter. This has me concerned that our pub caching logic is incorrect. Instead of the tool attempting to guess when pub should be run, always delegate to pub.
Also takes an opportunity to fix the kernel snapshot depending on the .packages or package_config. Due to the generated: date field this causes extra rebuilds. Instead when pub get is run, write out an additional file with just the package contents and version.

This class is entirely superseded by the application package factory. Only drive and install use it, and removing it from drive will allow use-application-binary support.

The flutter tool has a number of crashes on stable where an ArgumentError is thrown due to the process manager not being able to resolve an executable.
So that we can adjust/modify this logic, fold it into flutter and add some additional logging.
caches the resolved executable per target directory, to avoid repeated look ups.
Instead of throwing an argument error, attempts to run the executable as given if an exact path can't be found
Accept files or symlinks for the executable path.
