A full version history of the lodash.clonedeep package with size, number of distributed files and dependency evolution.
lodash.clonedeep has undergone significant evolution since its initial release, boasting a rich history of versions tailored to improve performance and dependency management. The early versions, ranging from 2.0.0 to 2.4.1, emerged in late 2013, mirroring Lo-Dash's core functionality as a Node.js module. These initial iterations heavily relied on internal dependencies like lodash._baseclone and lodash._basecreatecallback, with each version update often corresponding to advancements in these underlying components.
A notable shift occurred with the 3.x series (3.0.0 to 3.0.2) in early to mid-2015. These versions marked a transition to a more modern build of lodash, utilizing dependencies such as lodash._bindcallback.
The 4.x series, starting with 4.0.0 in early 2016, brought further modularization and optimization. Changes in dependencies (like lodash._arrayeach, lodash._stack, and lodash.keys) highlight a move towards finer-grained control and improved performance. Later versions within the 4.x branch, such as 4.3.0, streamlined dependencies further, focusing on lodash._baseclone. The final analyzed versions, 4.4.0, 4.4.1, and 4.5.0, continue to refine the module and enhance performance, solidifying lodash.clonedeep as a robust and dependable solution for deep object cloning in JavaScript environments. This version history demonstrates lodash.clonedeep's ongoing commitment to maintainability and optimization.
