Cannot Install Pest on some shells

[rajabilal555]

Installer Version

5.0.2

Description

When selecting no Starter Kit on the initial prompt, pest fails to installs on Windows Powershell.
Investigating this led me to the composer docs on the caret symbol where I discovered that it has to be escaped on Windows powershell.

Error:

Steps To Reproduce

Step 1: On "Would you like to install a starter kit?" Select none for No starter kit.

Step 2: On "Which testing framework do you prefer?" Enter 1 for PEST

Can you test using the following:

composer require --dev "pestphp/pest:^2.0" "pestphp/pest-plugin-laravel:^2.0"

Can you test using the following:

composer require --dev "pestphp/pest:^2.0" "pestphp/pest-plugin-laravel:^2.0"

@crynobone That also does not work

[rajabilal555]

Since the other starter kit options do install pest correctly, I checked the breeze installer and they are using the Process constructor which handles escape characters instead of the fromShellCommandline that is used by this repo.

We have a PR up so let's continue the discussion there. Thanks!
