I was dismayed today to find when adding my own package to a project, a whole bag of other packages were dragged in, including Makie. Which then compiled for minutes… How do I find which package caused this dependency cascade?

Package dependency tree?

Found it: PkgDependency does the job. (Great tool, by the way.)
