Angular's @angular/common package, a cornerstone for Angular applications providing essential directives and services, saw a minor version bump from 13.2.1 to 13.2.2. While both versions share the same fundamental description and license (MIT), a closer look reveals subtle yet pertinent distinctions for developers. Both versions depend on tslib version ^2.3.0 which provides helper functions for TypeScript. The key difference lies in the peer dependency @angular/core, which is 13.2.2 for @angular/common@13.2.2 and 13.2.1 for @angular/common@13.2.1. This means @angular/common@13.2.2 is created to be used with @angular/core@13.2.2.
The updated version, 13.2.2, released on February 8, 2022, exhibits a slightly smaller unpacked size of 11,383,489 bytes compared to the previous version's 11,384,791 bytes released on February 2, 2022. Both versions contain 2961 files. It's not possible to determine from this information how the update was implemented or the specific code changes, but this change could be due to minor optimizations, bug fixes, or dependency updates contributing to a slight reduction in the overall size.
Developers should prioritize using @angular/common@13.2.2 alongside @angular/core@13.2.2 to ensure compatibility and benefit from any bug fixes or performance improvements incorporated. Always check Angular's official changelog for a comprehensive breakdown of the specific changes within each release to make informed decisions regarding your project's dependencies.
