Version 0.5.0 Details

Fs-extra is a Node.js package extending the native fs module with crucial file system utilities commonly needed in development, such as recursively creating directories (mkdir -p), copying files (cp -r), and removing directories (rm -rf). Version 0.5.0, released on February 3rd, 2013, builds upon the functionality offered in version 0.4.0, which was published on January 28th, 2013. While both versions share the same core dependencies like ncp for file copying, mkdirp for directory creation, rimraf for forceful deletion, and jsonfile for easy JSON file handling, any specific bug fixes, performance improvements, or minor feature additions introduced in version 0.5.0 compared to 0.4.0 would likely be transparent to the developer through improved usage of the functions. Developers leveraging fs-extra avoid reimplementing these common tasks, saving development time and reducing the risk of errors. The package relies on a stack of well-established dependencies; testing is facilitated with Mocha and testutil, while path-extra is used for enhanced functionalities. Choosing between the two versions might come down to specific bug fixes related to the usage of its methods; but given the proximity in their release dates they are probably very close.
