Coming to you this week are a fancy new package view, pack/publish previews and a handful of bug fixes! Let's get right in!
NEW PACKAGE VIEW
There's a new npm view in town. You might it as npm info or npm show. The new output gives you a nicely summarized view that for most packages fits on one screen. If you ask it for --json you'll still get the same results, so your scripts should still work fine.
143cdbf13#19910 Add humanized default view. (@zkat)ca84be91c#19910tiny-relative-date@1.3.0(@zkat)9a5807c4f#19910cli-columns@3.1.2(@zkat)23b4a4fac#19910byte-size@4.0.2
PACK AND PUBLISH PREVIEWS
The npm pack and npm publish commands print out a summary of the files included in the package. They also both now take the --dry-run flag, so you can double check your .npmignore settings before doing a publish.
116e9d827#19908 Add package previews to pack and publish. Also add --dry-run and --json flags. (@zkat)
MERGE CONFLICT, SMERGE CONFLICT
If you resolve a package-lock.json merge conflict with npm install we now suggest you setup a merge driver to handle these automatically for you. If you're reading this and you'd like to set it up now, run:
npx npm-merge-driver install -gMISC BITS
