Make Fetch Happen version 8.0.7 introduces a minor update to this opinionated, caching, and retrying fetch client, primarily focusing on internal dependency adjustments. The most notable change from version 8.0.6 lies in the updated version of the minipass dependency, moving from version 3.0.0 to version 3.1.3. While seemingly small, this update to minipass can bring performance improvements and bug fixes within the streams that Make Fetch Happen utilizes, potentially impacting overall stability and resource management during complex caching and retry operations.
Developers should note that this is primarily a patch release, unlikely to introduce breaking changes. However, it's advisable to review the minipass changelog for specific details on the updates included in version 3.1.3, ensuring compatibility and understanding of any modified stream behaviors. For developers heavily reliant on Make Fetch Happen's caching or retry logic, especially in high-traffic environments, upgrading to 8.0.7 is recommended to benefit from the potential improvements and bug fixes within the updated stream handling.
The release also indicates a focus on maintaining active dependencies, reflecting good package maintenance practices. While the unpacked size of the package might be slightly reduced in version 8.0.7 compared to 8.0.6 it is not representative of a significant change.
