Version 4.1.0 Details

Cmd-shim is a utility used within npm to ensure consistent command-line application support across different operating systems. Version 4.1.0, released in February 2021, improves upon the prior stable version 4.0.2 released in July 2020. A significant difference lies in the dependencies. Version 4.0.2 relies on graceful-fs for file system operations, while version 4.1.0 replaces this dependency, removing it to improve maintainability or address identified issues. Both versions share the dependency mkdirp-infer-owner, which helps create directories and infer ownership, crucial for managing file permissions in various environments. Developers using cmd-shim will also find familiar development dependencies in both versions: tap for testing and rimraf for removing files and directories recursively. Developers should note the change in dependencies which might change the specific semantics around file system operations. The dist object shows that version 4.1.0 is slightly larger than 4.0.2, indicating possible additions, refactorings, or altered build processes. Both versions are licensed under ISC provide developers necessary freedom. Upgrading to version 4.1.0 might be important for bug fixes, performance improvements or security patches. Developers should evaluate the change in dependencies, and adjust their code accordingly.
