Version 2.0.0 Details

Gulp-rename, a utility for renaming files within a gulp workflow, saw a notable update from version 1.4.0 to 2.0.0. Both versions maintain the core functionality of renaming files, licensed under MIT, and developed by Hector Guillermo Parra Alvarez. Key improvements arose between the 2 releases, making version 2.0.0 attractive to developers.

Version 2.0.0 features updated developer dependencies. Version 1.4.0 relied on tools like jscs and jshint for code style and linting, which have been superseded by prettier in version 2.0.0, reflecting a shift towards modern Javascript tooling. Also the mocha version jumped from 5.0.0 to 6.0.0. The gulp dependency moved from "^4.0.0" to "^4.0.2". On the other hand gulp-sourcemaps's version moved from 2.6.4 to 2.6.5. The bundle size also increased slightly, with 2.0.0 having an unpacked size of 7169 bytes compared to 1.4.0's 6103 bytes, the number of files included also increased from 4 to 5 so it's probably negligible. For developers, this means a slightly larger download but access to an enhanced toolset for maintaining code quality.

The release date also indicates a considerable gap, with version 1.4.0 released in July 2018 and version 2.0.0 in December 2019, giving it a more up-to-date feel. Developers should consider these updates when choosing between versions, prioritizing the newer version when up-to-date tools are essencial.
