## v5.9.0 (2018-03-23):
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.

`byte-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`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/116e9d8271d04536522a7f02de1dde6f91ca5e6e)
[#19908](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/19908)
Add package previews to pack and publish. Also add --dry-run and --json
flags.

### 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:
```console
npx npm-merge-driver install -g
```

## v5.8.0 (2018-03-08):
Hey again, everyone! While last release was focused largely around PRs from the
CLI team, this release is mostly pulling in community PRs in npm itself and its
dependencies! We've got a good chunk of wonderful contributions for y'all, and
even new features and performance improvements! 🎉
We're hoping to continue our biweekly (as in every-other-week biweekly) release
schedule from now on, so you should be seeing more steady npm releases from here
on out. And that's good, 'cause we've got a _ton_ of new stuff on our roadmap
for this year. Keep an eye out for exciting news. 👀
### FEATURES
* [`2f513fe1c`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/2f513fe1ce6db055b04a63fe4360212a83f77b34)
[#19904](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/19904)
Make a best-attempt at preserving line ending style when saving
`package.json`/`package-lock.json`/`npm-shrinkwrap.json`. This goes
hand-in-hand with a previous patch to preserve detected indentation style.

* [`d3cfd41a2`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/d3cfd41a28253db5a18260f68642513cbbc93e3b)
`pacote@7.6.1` ([@zkat](https://github.com/zkat))
* Enable `file:`-based `resolved` URIs in `package-lock.json`.
* Retry git-based operations on certain types of failure.
* [`ecfbb16dc`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/ecfbb16dc705f28aa61b3223bdbf9e47230a0fa4)
[#19929](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/19929)
Add support for the [`NO_COLOR` standard](http://no-color.org). This gives a
cross-application, consistent way of disabling ANSI color code output. Note
that npm already supported this through `--no-color` or
`npm_config_color='false'` configurations, so this is just another way to do
it.

* [`fc8761daf`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/fc8761daf1e8749481457973890fa516eb96a195)
[#19629](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/19629)
Give more detailed, contextual information when npm fails to parse
`package-lock.json` and `npm-shrinkwrap.json`, instead of saying `JSON parse
error` and leaving you out in the cold.

[#19157](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/19157)
Add `--no-proxy` config option. Previously, you needed to use the `NO_PROXY`
environment variable to use this feature -- now it's an actual npm option.

* [`f0e998daa`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/f0e998daa049810d5f928615132250021e46451d)

### NPM CI
I hope y'all have been having fun with `npm ci` so far! Since this is the first
release since that went out, we've had a few fixes and improvements now that
folks have actually gotten their hands on it! Benchmarks have been super
promising so far, and I've gotten messages from a lot of you saying you've sped
up your CI work by **2-5x** in some cases! Have a good example? Tell us on
Twitter!
`npm ci` is, right now, [the fastest
installer](http://blog.npmjs.org/post/171556855892/introducing-npm-ci-for-faster-more-reliable)
you can use in CI situations, so go check it out if you haven't already! We'll
continue doing performance improvements on it, and a lot of those will help make
`npm install` fast as well. 🏎😎
* [`0d7f203d9`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/0d7f203d9e86cc6c8d69107689ea60fc7cbab424)
`libcipm@1.6.0`
([@zkat](https://github.com/zkat))
This `libcipm` release includes a number of improvements:
* **PERFORMANCE** Reduce calls to `read-package-json` and separate JSON update phase from man/bin linking phase. `npm ci` should be noticeably faster.
* **FEATURE** Progress bar now fills up as packages are installed, instead of sitting there doing nothing.
* **BUGFIX** Add support for `--only` and `--also` options.
* **BUFGIX** Linking binaries and running scripts in parallel was causing packages to sometimes clobber each other when hoisted, as well as potentially running too many run-scripts in parallel. This is now a serial operation, and it turns out to have had relatively little actual performance impact.
* **BUGFIX** Stop adding `_from` to directory deps (aka `file:packages/my-dep`).
### BUGFIXES
* [`58d2aa58d`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/58d2aa58d5f9c4db49f57a5f33952b3106778669)
[#20027](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/20027)
Use a specific mtime when packing tarballs instead of the beginning of epoch
time. This should allow `npm pack` to generate tarballs with identical hashes
for identical contents, while fixing issues with some `zip` implementations
that do not support pre-1980 timestamps.

## v5.7.1 (2018-02-22):
This release reverts a patch that could cause some ownership changes on system
files when running from some directories when also using `sudo`. 😲
Thankfully, it only affected users running `npm@next`, which is part of our
staggered release system, which we use to prevent issues like this from going
out into the wider world before we can catch them. Users on `latest` would have
never seen this!
The original patch was added to increase consistency and reliability of methods
npm uses to avoid writing files as `root` in places it shouldn't, but the change
was applied in places that should have used regular `mkdirp`. This release
reverts that patch.

## v5.7.0 (2018-02-20):
Hey y'all, it's been a while. Expect our release rate to increase back to
normal here, as we've got a lot in the pipeline. Right now we've got a
bunch of things from folks at npm. In the next release we'll be focusing on
user contributions and there are a lot of them queued up!
This release brings a bunch of exciting new features and bug fixes.
### PACKAGE-LOCK GIT MERGE CONFLICT RESOLUTION
Allow `npm install` to fix `package-lock.json` and `npm-shrinkwrap.json`
files that have merge conflicts in them without your having to edit them.
It works in conjunction with
[`npm-merge-driver`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm-merge-driver) to
entirely eliminate package-lock merge conflicts.
* [`e27674c22`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/e27674c221dc17473f23bffa50123e49a021ae34)
Automatically resolve merge conflicts in lock-files.
([@zkat](https://github.com/zkat))
### NPM CI
The new `npm ci` command installs from your lock-file ONLY. If your
`package.json` and your lock-file are out of sync then it will report an error.
It works by throwing away your `node_modules` and recreating it from scratch.
Beyond guaranteeing you that you'll only get what is in your lock-file it's
also much faster (2x-10x!) than `npm install` when you don't start with a
`node_modules`.
As you may take from the name, we expect it to be a big boon to continuous
integration environments. We also expect that folks who do production
deploys from git tags will see major gains.
* [`5e4de9c99`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/5e4de9c99c934e25ef7b9c788244cc3c993da559)

### BIG FIXES TO PRUNING
* [`827951590`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/8279515903cfa3026cf7096189485cdf29f74a8f)
Handle running `npm install package-name` with a `node_modules` containing
packages without sufficient metadata to verify their origin. The only way
to get install packages like this is to use a non-`npm` package manager.
Previously `npm` removed any packages that it couldn't verify. Now it
will leave them untouched as long as you're not asking for a full install.
On a full install they will be reinstalled (but the same versions will be
maintained).
This will fix problems for folks who are using a third party package
manager to install packages that have `postinstall` scripts that run
`npm install`.
([@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))
* [`3b305ee71`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/3b305ee71e2bf852ff3037366a1774b8c5fcc0a5)
Only auto-prune on installs that will create a lock-file. This restores
`npm@4` compatible behavior when the lock-file is disabled. When using a
lock-file `npm` will continue to remove anything in your `node_modules`
that's not in your lock-file. ([@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))
* [`cec5be542`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/cec5be5427f7f5106a905de8630e1243e9b36ef4)
Fix bug where `npm prune --production` would remove dev deps from the lock
file. It will now only remove them from `node_modules` not from your lock
file.
([@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))
* [`857dab03f`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/857dab03f2d58586b45d41d3e5af0fb2d4e824d0)
Fix bug where git dependencies would be removed or reinstalled when
installing other dependencies.
([@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))
### BUG FIXES TO TOKENS AND PROFILES
* [`a66e0cd03`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/a66e0cd0314893b745e6b9f6ca1708019b1d7aa3)
For CIDR filtered tokens, allow comma separated CIDR ranges, as documented. Previously
you could only pass in multiple cidr ranges with multiple `--cidr` command line options.

* [`d259ab014`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/d259ab014748634a89cad5b20eb7a40f3223c0d5)
Fix token revocation when an OTP is required. Previously you had to pass
it in via `--otp`. Now it will prompt you for an OTP like other
`npm token` commands.
([@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))
* [`f8b1f6aec`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/f8b1f6aecadd3b9953c2b8b05d15f3a9cff67cfd)
Update token and profile commands to support legacy (username/password) authentication.
(The npm registry uses tokens, not username/password pairs, to authenticate commands.)
([@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))
### OTHER BUG FIXES
* [`6954dfc19`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/6954dfc192f88ac263f1fcc66cf820a21f4379f1)
Fix a bug where packages would get pushed deeper into the tree when upgrading without
an existing copy on disk. Having packages deeper in the tree ordinarily is harmless but
is not when peerDependencies are in play.

of the module wouldn't be installed on the first run of `npm install`.

**Fully cross-platform `package-lock.json`**. Installing a failing optional

[#18881](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/18881)
When dealing with a `node_modules` that was created with older versions of npm
(and thus older versions of npa) we need to gracefully handle older spec
entries. Failing to do so results in us treating those packages as if they
were http remote deps, which results in invalid lock files with `version` set
to tarball URLs. This should now be fixed.

`bin-links@1.1.0`: Log the fact line endings are being changed upon install.
([@marcosscriven](https://github.com/marcosscriven))
### Refactors
Usually, we don't include internal refactor stuff in our release notes, but it's
worth calling out some of them because they're part of a larger effort the CLI
team and associates are undertaking to modularize npm itself so other package
managers and associated tools can reuse all that code!

[#18500](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/18500)
Extract bin-links and gentle-fs to a separate library. This will allow
external tools to do bin linking and certain fs operations in an
npm-compatible way!

`npm-lifecycle@2.0.0`: Use our own `node-gyp`. This means npm no longer needs
to pull some maneuvers to make sure `node-gyp` is in the right place, and that
external packages using `npm-lifecycle` will get working native builds without
having to do their own `node-gyp` maneuvers.

[#19099](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/19099)
`find-npm-prefix@1.0.1`: npm's prefix-finding logic is now a standalone
module. That is, the logic that figures out where the root of your project is
if you've `cd`'d into a subdirectory. Did you know you can run `npm install`
from these subdirectories, and it'll only affect the root? It works like git!

## v5.5.0 (2017-10-04):
Hey y'all, this is a big new feature release! We've got some security
related goodies plus a some quality-of-life improvements for anyone who uses
the public registry (so, virtually everyone).
The changes largely came together in one piece, so I'm just gonna leave the commit line here:

Two factor authentication, profile editing and token management.
([@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))
### TWO FACTOR AUTHENTICATION
You can now enable two-factor authentication for your npm account. You can
even do it from the CLI. In fact, you have to, for the time being:
```
npm profile enable-tfa
```
With the default two-factor authentication mode you'll be prompted to enter
a one-time password when logging in, when publishing and when modifying access rights to
your modules.
### TOKEN MANAGEMENT
You can now create, list and delete authentication tokens from the comfort
of the command line. Authentication tokens created this way can have NEW
restrictions placed on them. For instance, you can create a `read-only`
token to give to your CI. It will be able to download your private modules
but it won't be able to publish or modify modules. You can also create
tokens that can only be used from certain network addresses. This way you
can lock down access to your corporate VPN or other trusted machines.
Deleting tokens isn't new, you could [do it via the
website](https://www.npmjs.com/settings/tokens) but now you can do it via
the CLI as well.
### CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD, SET YOUR EMAIL
You can finally change your password from the CLI with `npm profile set
password`! You can also update your email address with `npm profile set
email <address>`. If you change your email address we'll send you a new
verification email so you verify that its yours.
### AND EVERYTHING ELSE ON YOUR PROFILE
You can also update all of the other attributes of your profile that
previously you could only update via the website: `fullname`, `homepage`,
`freenode`, `twitter` and `github`.
### AVAILABLE STAND ALONE
All of these features were implemented in a stand alone library, so if you
have use for them in your own project you can find them in
[npm-profile](https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm-profile) on the registry.
There's also a little mini-cli written just for it at
[npm-profile-cli](https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm-profile-cli). You might
also be interested in the [API
documentation](https://github.com/npm/registry/tree/master/docs) for these
new features: [user profile editing](https://github.com/npm/registry/blob/master/docs/user/profile.md) and
[authentication](https://github.com/npm/registry/blob/master/docs/user/authentication.md).
### BUG FIXES

## v5.4.0 (2017-08-22):
Here's another ~~small~~ big release, with a ~~handful~~ bunch of fixes and
a couple of ~~small~~ new features! This release has been incubating rather
longer than usual and it's grown quite a bit in that time. I'm also excited
to say that it has contributions from **27** different folks, which is a new
record for us. Our previous record was 5.1.0 at 21. Before that the record
had been held by 1.3.16 since _December of 2013_.
If you can't get enough of the bleeding edge, I encourage you to check out
our canary release of npm. Get it wi
