Gulp, a "simple stream-y build helper," saw a minor version bump from 0.0.1 to 0.0.2 in early July 2013. While both versions share the same core purpose and maintainer, Fractal, a close examination reveals subtle but potentially impactful changes for developers. The core dependencies remain largely unchanged, featuring staples like glob for file matching, async for asynchronous control flow, glob-stream for creating streams from glob patterns, event-stream for stream manipulation, and coffee-script for CoffeeScript support. Both versions also include mocha and should for development dependencies, specifically for testing.
The key difference lies within the dependencies section, specifically the removal of the colors dependency in version 0.0.2. While seemingly small, this change indicates a potential shift in how Gulp handles terminal output colorization. Developers upgrading from 0.0.1 should verify that any code relying on colors directly is adjusted accordingly, potentially requiring a new dependency or an alternative method for colorizing output.
Both versions were released within a short timeframe, suggesting rapid iteration during early development. Given these early versions, developers should treat them more as experimental releases rather than long-term stable dependencies. The Git repository URL remains consistent, pointing to github.com/wearefractal/gulp.git, providing a central location for source code access, issue tracking, and contribution. While these versions are old, understanding these diffs helps developers appreciate the evolution of build tools like Gulp and how dependencies can impact project workflows.
