 * Avoid the duplicate resolving of usage files when parsing `*.hi` files into a
   set of modules and a collection of resolved usage files. See
   [#6123](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/6123).
+* Add component type flags to the `ide targets` command.

+`stack ide targets` lists every available target in your project.

+With one or more component type flags this listing can be restricted.

+`stack ide targets --exes` lists only exe targets.
