-### Resolving lockfile conflicts
-
-Occasionally, two separate npm install will create package locks that cause
-merge conflicts in source control systems. As of `npm@5.7.0`, these conflicts
-can be resolved by manually fixing any `package.json` conflicts, and then
-running `npm install [--package-lock-only]` again. npm will automatically
-resolve any conflicts for you and write a merged package lock that includes all
-the dependencies from both branches in a reasonable tree. If
-`--package-lock-only` is provided, it will do this without also modifying your
-local `node_modules/`.
-
-To make this process seamless on git, consider installing
-[`npm-merge-driver`](https://npm.im/npm-merge-driver), which will teach git how
-to do this itself without any user interaction. In short: `$ npx
-npm-merge-driver install -g` will let you do this, and even works with
-pre-`npm@5.7.0` versions of npm 5, albeit a bit more noisily. Note that if
-`package.json` itself conflicts, you will have to resolve that by hand and run
-`npm install` manually, even with the merge driver.
