Version 5.0.0 Details

The which package, a utility mimicking the Unix which(1) command, helps developers locate the first instance of an executable within the system's PATH environment variable. Examining versions 5.0.0 and 4.0.0 reveals key updates relevant to developers. Both versions maintain the core functionality and dependency on isexe for executable verification, licensed under ISC and maintained by GitHub.

The significant changes lie in the development dependencies. Version 5.0.0 upgrades @npmcli/template-oss from 4.18.0 to 4.23.3 and @npmcli/eslint-config from 4.0.0 to 5.0.0. These updates suggest improvements in project scaffolding and linting configurations, contributing to enhanced code quality and maintainability. The @npmcli/eslint-config upgrade likely incorporates newer linting rules and best practices, guiding developers to write cleaner code and adhere to current standards. The releaseDate moves from 2023-08-29T18:39:57.339Z in version 4.0.0 to 2024-10-01T18:02:58.779Z, showing updated code. While the core functionality remains consistent, developers should consider upgrading to version 5.0.0 to leverage these modern development tools, improved linting, and potential bug fixes or performance enhancements implicitly included within the updated @npmcli dependencies. The unpacked size is slightly smaller in v5.0.0, reduced by 28 bytes
