What's the best way to execute `brew install` + `brew add` and `brew uninstall` + `brew drop` together?

Hi,

Looking to create a setup in which I can leverage one command and execute both install + add and another command to execute uninstall + drop together?

What's the best way to accomplish this?

Perfect timing! I actually have an unpushed setup for this very thing that I've been testing for months now. I'll tidy it up and push the feature soon. The current (as of now unpublished) syntax is brew add -U and brew drop -U, with -U being short for --update. I've been thinking about renaming the option to --sync, however (I would love to hear your thoughts).

Love it! I appreciate the work. Thank you.

EDIT: As far as how the syntax would work, I would vote for brew add -S or brew add --sync. Similarly, it would be brew drop --sync. As far as an enhancement to this flow, would it be too much work to set the -S, --sync flag to always ask for confirmation for the location of the Brewfile you want to sync if neither the --file, --global, or $HOMEBREW_BUNDLE_FILE variables are set/passed too as well as asking the user to confirm the -S, --sync action with a [Y]es, [N]o interaction if they are set?

This interaction could be bypassed by passing -Y, --yes flag for a one-command solution.
