Ci-info provides developers with an easy way to detect and gather details about the current Continuous Integration (CI) environment. Version 3.6.1 and the previous stable version 3.6.0 are both lightweight tools designed to offer this functionality. Both versions share the same core purpose, description, development dependencies (tape, standard, clear-module), license (MIT), repository, and author information. Therefore, the key functional use for developers remains consistent: reliably identify the specific CI environment where their code is running and access relevant environment variables.
The changes between the versions are subtle. Version 3.6.1, released on November 13, 2022 at 15:28:57.544Z, comes shortly after version 3.6.0, released on the same day at 11:06:13.441Z. The key difference lies in the dist section. While both versions contain 7 files, version 3.6.1 has a slightly larger unpacked size of 23908 bytes compared to version 3.6.0's 23812 bytes. This small increase in unpacked size suggests minor internal adjustments, possibly bug fixes, performance improvements, small copy edits, or adjustments to internal data structures. For developers, the upgrade to 3.6.1 should be seamless, providing the same CI environment detection without any breaking changes, but with the potential benefit of under-the-hood enhancements, making it advisable to update for stability.
