Make addSelect() not overrule the default select() value

[pimski]

Hi!

When using eloquent's query builder I often rely on the default select value.

User::query()->get(); // select * from users;

However, sometimes I need to append an extra column so I use addSelect (usually hidden in a scope on the model). This results in the default select being overruled by the addSelect column.

User::query()->someScopeWithAddSelect()->get(); // select colum_from_add_select from users;

It would be nice if addSelect doesn't overrule the default select value. Also, I think it's safer to default to the models table.

User::query()->someScopeWithAddSelect()->get(); // select users.*, colum_from_add_select from users;

In summary:

• When no select is specified default to <table>.*
• addSelect doesn't overrule the default select value
