Support Target option

[ZIJ]

Delta plans. option -target is in effect to see only desired changes.

Seems like could be addressed by introducing support of the target option for the plan command. So you'd comment digger plan -t and that'll run a targeted plan. Or maybe something similar to what tftarget does, sort of a "persistent target" for the entire pr; then it'll be smth like digger target comment that will set the target. The latter approach would introduce an extra stateful piece though in addition to locks. @timothyclarke I'm not sure that I'm getting your idea right though

Originally suggested by @timothyclarke in #237 - now tracking separately here

this would be a great feature. We were using atlantis and now switched to digger and we really miss --target option which we had with atlatnis.
For example, this would only plan and later apply a single module in our stack, rather than all 100 modules we are using in our stack:
atlantis plan -- -target=module.our-custom-module.random_password.first_random_pass

even apply should be possible I think.
In large stacks where several teams are working ( not good but sometimes reality ) there might be "lock situation" which can't be fixed immediately ( other team not reachable...) and you want to do a `terraform apply --target ..." to apply at least your required changes

Exactly. I am just stuck at this use case with digger because some team member made a typo in his module which is breaking the plan and apply of the complete stack. With --target I could apply only my module and have time to locate the colleague to fix his type because I have no access to the repo where he made an error. I hope that digger will implement --target soon.

still no news for this issue?
