Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

Eslint-config-flat-gitignore has released a new version, 2.1.0, building upon the functionality of the previous stable version, 2.0.0. Both versions provide seamless .gitignore support for ESLint Flat Config, streamlining the configuration process for developers seeking to exclude files and directories specified in their .gitignore from ESLint's analysis. Core dependencies like @eslint/compat remain consistent, ensuring continued compatibility with ESLint's ecosystem.

The key differences lie in the development dependencies. Version 2.1.0 introduces find-up-simple which might indicate changes in how the package locates .gitignore files. It also includes updated versions of @antfu/eslint-config and @antfu/utils. These updates likely bring improvements in the underlying ESLint configuration and utility functions used during development, potentially leading to a more robust internal development workflow. Additionally, the file count in the distributed package has decreased in the newer release, suggesting potential optimisations in project organisation. The newer version has also been released later, as shown by the release dates. For developers, these changes suggest improved stability or potentially more efficient .gitignore parsing. While both maintain the same peer dependency on ESLint ^9.5.0 the changes in dev dependencies hint at underlying improvements within the development and testing environment. It's advisable to update to version 2.1.0 to benefit from any bug fixes, performance tweaks, updated tooling dependencies, or enhanced file finding logic introduced in the newer release.
