### DEPENDENCY UPDATES
A very special dependency update event! Since the [release of
`node-gyp@3.8.0`](https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/pull/1521), an awkward
version conflict that was preventing `request` from begin flattened was
resolved. This means two things:
1. We've cut down the npm tarball size by another 200kb, to 4.6MB
2. `npm audit` now shows no vulnerabilities for npm itself!
Thanks, [@rvagg](https://github.com/rvagg)!

* [`ad0dd226f`](https://github.com/npm/cli/commit/ad0dd226fb97a33dcf41787ae7ff282803fb66f2)
[npm/cli#26](https://github.com/npm/cli/pull/26)
`npm version` now supports a `--preid` option to specify the preid for
prereleases. For example, `npm version premajor --preid rc` will tag a version
like `2.0.0-rc.0`.

[npm/cli#24](https://github.com/npm/cli/pull/24)
Use the default OTP explanation everywhere except when the context is
"OTP-aware" (like when setting double-authentication). This improves the
overall CLI messaging when prompting for an OTP code.

`wrappy` was previously added to dependencies in order to flatten it, but we
no longer do legacy-style for npm itself, so it has been removed from
`package.json`.

## v6.2.0 (2018-07-13):
In case you missed it, [we
moved!](https://blog.npmjs.org/post/175587538995/announcing-npmcommunity). We
look forward to seeing future PRs landing in
[npm/cli](https://github.com/npm/cli) in the future, and we'll be chatting with
you all in [npm.community](https://npm.community). Go check it out!
This final release of `npm@6.2.0` includes a couple of features that weren't
quite ready on time but that we'd still like to include. Enjoy!
### FEATURES
* [`244b18380`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/244b18380ee55950b13c293722771130dbad70de)
[#20554](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/20554)
Add support for tab-separated output for `npm audit` data with the
`--parseable` flag.
([@luislobo](https://github.com/luislobo))
* [`7984206e2`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/7984206e2f41b8d8361229cde88d68f0c96ed0b8)
[#12697](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/12697)
Add new `sign-git-commit` config to control whether the git commit itself gets
signed, or just the tag (which is the default).
([@tribou](https://github.com/tribou))
### FIXES
* [`4c32413a5`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/4c32413a5b42e18a34afb078cf00eed60f08e4ff)
[#19418](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/19418)

`request@2.81.0`: Downgraded to allow better deduplication. This does
introduce a bunch of `hoek`-related audit reports, but they don't affect npm
itself so we consider it safe. We'll upgrade `request` again once `node-gyp`
unpins it.
([@simov](https://github.com/simov))
* [`2ac48f863`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/2ac48f863f90166b2bbf2021ed4cc04343d2503c)

this dependency bump, we've removed `lodash` from our tree, which cut back
tarball size by another 300kb.

### DEPENDENCY SHUFFLE!
We did some reshuffling and moving around of npm's own dependencies. This
significantly reduces the total bundle size of the npm pack, from 8MB to 4.8MB
for the distributed tarball! We also moved around what we actually commit to the
repo as far as devDeps go.

## v6.1.0 (2018-05-17):
### FIX WRITE AFTER END ERROR
First introduced in 5.8.0, this finally puts to bed errors where you would
occasionally see `Error: write after end at MiniPass.write`.
* [`171f3182f`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/171f3182f32686f2f94ea7d4b08035427e0b826e)

`pacote@8.1.5`: Fix write-after-end errors.
([@zkat](https://github.com/zkat))
### DETECT CHANGES IN GIT SPECIFIERS
* [`0e1726c03`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/0e1726c0350a02d5a60f5fddb1e69c247538625e)
We can now determine if the commitid of a git dependency in the lockfile is derived
from the specifier in the package.json and if it isn't we now trigger an update for it.
([@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))
### OTHER BUGS
* [`442d2484f`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/442d2484f686e3a371b07f8473a17708f84d9603)

[`631d30a34`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/631d30a340f5805aed6e83f47a577ca4125599b2)
When requesting the update of a direct dependency that was also a
transitive dependency to a version incompatible with the transitive
requirement and you had a lock-file but did not have a `node_modules`
folder then npm would fail to provide a new copy of the transitive
dependency, resulting in an invalid lock-file that could not self heal.
([@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))
* [`be5dd0f49`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/be5dd0f496ec1485b1ea3094c479dfc17bd50d82)
[#20715](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/20715)
Cleanup output of `npm ci` summary report.

* [`98ffe4adb`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/98ffe4adb55a6f4459271856de2e27e95ee63375)
Node.js now has a test that scans for things that look like conflict
markers in source code. This was triggering false positives on a fixture in a test
of npm's ability to heal lockfiles with conflicts in them.

Look at that! A feature bump! `npm@6` was super-exciting not just because it
used a bigger number than ever before, but also because it included a super
shiny new command: `npm audit`. Well, we've kept working on it since then and
have some really nice improvements for it. You can expect more of them, and the
occasional fix, in the next few releases as more users start playing with it and
we get more feedback about what y'all would like to see from something like
this.
I, for one, have started running it (and the new subcommand...) in all my
projects, and it's one of those things that I don't know how I ever functioned
-without- it! This will make a world of difference to so many people as far as
making the npm ecosystem a higher-quality, safer commons for all of us.
This is also a good time to remind y'all that we have a new [RFCs
repository](https://github.com/npm/rfcs), along with a new process for them.
This repo is open to anyone's RFCs, and has already received some great ideas
about where we can take the CLI (and, to a certain extent, the registry). It's a
great place to get feedback, and completely replaces feature requests in the
main repo, so we won't be accepting feature requests there at all anymore. Check
it out if you have something you'd like to suggest, or if you want to keep track
of what the future might look like!
### NEW FEATURE: `npm audit fix`
This is the biggie with this release! `npm audit fix` does exactly what it says
on the tin. It takes all the actionable reports from your `npm audit` and runs
the installs automatically for you, so you don't have to try to do all that
mechanical work yourself!
Note that by default, `npm audit fix` will stick to semver-compatible changes,
so you should be able to safely run it on most projects and carry on with your
day without having to track down what breaking changes were included. If you
want your (toplevel) dependencies to accept semver-major bumps as well, you can
use `npm audit fix --force` and it'll toss those in, as well. Since it's running
the npm installer under the hood, it also supports `--production` and
`--only=dev` flags, as well as things like `--dry-run`, `--json`, and
`--package-lock-only`, if you want more control over what it does.
Give it a whirl and tell us what you think! See `npm help audit` for full docs!
* [`3800a660d`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/3800a660d99ca45c0175061dbe087520db2f54b7)

* [`957cbe275`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/957cbe27542d30c33e58e7e6f2f04eeb64baf5cd)
`npm-audit-report@1.2.1`:
Overhaul audit install and detail output format. The new format is terser and
fits more closely into the visual style of the CLI, while still providing you
with the important bits of information you need. They also include a bit more
detail on the footer about what actions you can take!
([@zkat](https://github.com/zkat))
### NEW FEATURE: GIT DEPS AND `npm init <pkg>`!
Another exciting change that came with `npm@6` was the new `npm init` command
that allows for community-authored generators. That means you can, for example,
do `npm init react-app` and it'll one-off download, install, and run
[`create-react-app`](https://npm.im/create-react-app) for you, without requiring
or keeping around any global installs. That is, it basically just calls out to
[`npx`](https://npm.im/npx).
The first version of this command only really supported registry dependencies,
but now, [@jdalton](https://github.com/jdalton) went ahead and extended this
feature so you can use hosted git dependencies, and their shorthands.
So go ahead and do `npm init facebook/create-react-app` and it'll grab the
package from the github repo now! Or you can use it with a private github
repository to maintain your organizational scaffolding tools or whatnot. ✨

### SHRONKWRAPS AND LACKFILES
If a published modules had legacy `npm-shrinkwrap.json` we were saving
ordinary registry dependencies (`name@version`) to your `package-lock.json`
as `https://` URLs instead of versions.
* [`89102c0d9`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/89102c0d995c3d707ff2b56995a97a1610f8b532)
When saving the lock-file compute how the dependency is being required instead of using
`_resolved` in the `package.json`. This fixes the bug that was converting
registry dependencies into `https://` dependencies.

* [`676f1239a`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/676f1239ab337ff967741895dbe3a6b6349467b6)
When encountering a `https://` URL in our lockfiles that point at our default registry, extract
the version and use them as registry dependencies. This lets us heal
`package-lock.json` files produced by 6.0.0

it even better when it is turned on!

* [`fcdbcbacc`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/fcdbcbacc16d96a8696dde4b6d7c1cba77828337)
Verify lockfile integrity before running. You'd get an error either way, but this way it's
faster and can give you more concrete instructions on how to fix it.

this might well be the last prerelease before we tag `6.0.0`! There's two major
features included with this release, along with a few miscellaneous fixes and
changes.
### EXTENDED `npm init` SCAFFOLDING
Thanks to the wonderful efforts of [@jdalton](https://github.com/jdalton) of
lodash fame, `npm init` can now be used to invoke custom scaffolding tools!
You can now do things like `npm init react-app` or `npm init esm` to scaffold an
npm package by running `create-react-app` and `create-esm`, respectively. This
also adds an `npm create` alias, to correspond to Yarn's `yarn create` feature,
which inspired this.

[#20303](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/20303)
Add an `npm init` feature that calls out to `npx` when invoked with positional
arguments. ([@jdalton](https://github.com/jdalton))
### DEPENDENCY AUDITING
This version of npm adds a new command, `npm audit`, which will run a security
audit of your project's dependency tree and notify you about any actions you may
need to take.
The registry-side services required for this command to work will be available
on the main npm registry in the coming weeks. Until then, you won't get much out
of trying to use this on the CLI.
As part of this change, the npm CLI now sends scrubbed and cryptographically
anonymized metadata about your dependency tree to your configured registry, to
allow notifying you about the existence of critical security flaws. For details
about how the CLI protects your privacy when it shares this metadata, see `npm
help audit`, or [read the docs for `npm audit`
online](https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/release-next/doc/cli/npm-audit.md). You
can disable this altogether by doing `npm config set audit false`, but will no
longer benefit from the service.
