Additionally, the diffs from these changes are human-readable and will inform you of any changes npm has made to your `node_modules`, so you can notice if any transitive dependencies were updated, hoisted, etc. -### 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. - ## SEE ALSO * https://medium.com/@sdboyer/so-you-want-to-write-a-package-manager-4ae9c17d9527 |
