```julia
julia> versioninfo()
Julia Version 1.0.5
Commit 3af96bcefc (2019-09-09 19:06 UTC)
Platform Info:
  OS: Linux (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
  CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770HQ CPU @ 2.20GHz
  WORD_SIZE: 64
  LIBM: libopenlibm
  LLVM: libLLVM-6.0.0 (ORCJIT, haswell)

```

I create a new package:

```julia
(Modules-1.0) pkg> generate MyPackage
Generating project MyPackage:
    MyPackage/Project.toml
    MyPackage/src/MyPackage.jl

(Modules-1.0) pkg> activate MyPackage

```

I add `Test` as a dependency:

```julia
(MyPackage) pkg> add Test
 Resolving package versions...
  Updating `~/datascienceworkbench/lib/Modules-1.0/MyPackage/Project.toml`
  [8dfed614] + Test

  [9a3f8284] + Random 
  [9e88b42a] + Serialization 
  [6462fe0b] + Sockets 
  [8dfed614] + Test 

```

Next I quit and using my text editor move `Test` into `[extras]` to give a Project.toml like this:

```julia
name = "MyPackage"
uuid = "eb0aa806-0915-11eb-255b-a723c42b6e2c"
version = "0.1.0"

[deps]

[extras]
Test = "8dfed614-e22c-5e08-85e1-65c5234f0b40"

[targets]
test = ["Test"]

```

Now return to julia, and add another package dependency:

```julia
(Modules-1.0) pkg> activate MyPackage

(MyPackage) pkg> add JSON

  [9e88b42a] - Serialization 
  [6462fe0b] - Sockets 
  [8dfed614] - Test 
  [4ec0a83e] + Unicode 

```

Instead of just adding `JSON` and its dependencies, it also removes `Test` and its dependencies from the `Manifest.toml` file.

How do I stop this from happening?
