### v2.13.3 (2015-07-23):
#### I'M SAVING THE GOOD JOKES FOR MORE INTERESTING RELEASES
It's pretty hard to outdo last week's release buuuuut~ I promise I'll have a
treat when we release our shiny new **Teams and Organizations** feature! :D
(Coming Soon™). It'll be a real *gem*.
That means it's a pretty low-key release this week. We got some nice
documentation tweaks, a few bugfixes, and other such things, though!
Oh, and a _bunch of version bumps_. Thanks, `semver`!
#### IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS THAT MATTER
* [`2fac6ae`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/2fac6aeffefba2934c3db395b525d931599c34d8)
[#9012](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/9012) A convenience for releases --
using the globally-installed npm before now was causing minor annoyances, so
we just use the exact same npm we're releasing to build the new release.
([@zkat](https://github.com/zkat))
#### WHAT DOES THIS BUTTON DO?
There's a couple of doc updates! The last one might be interesting.
* [`4cd3205`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/4cd32050c0f89b7f1ae486354fa2c35eea302ba5)
[#9002](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/9002) Updated docs to list the
various files that npm automatically includes and excludes, regardless of
settings.
([@SimenB](https://github.com/SimenB))
* [`cf09e75`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/cf09e754931739af32647d667b671e72a4c79081)
[#9022](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/9022) Document the `"access"` field
in `"publishConfig"`. Did you know you don't need to use `--access=public`
when publishing scoped packages?! Just put it in your `package.json`!
Go refresh yourself on scopes packages by [checking our docs](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/scoped-packages) on them.

* [`bfd73da`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/bfd73da33349cc2afb8278953b2ae16ea95023de)
[#9013](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/9013) fixed typo in changelog
([@radarhere](https://github.com/radarhere))
#### THE SEMVER MAJOR VERSION APOCALYPSE IS UPON US
Basically, `semver` is up to `@5`, and that meant we needed to go in an update a
bunch of our dependencies manually. `node-gyp` is still pending update, since
it's not ours, though!

### v2.13.2 (2015-07-16):
#### HOLD ON TO YOUR TENTACLES... IT'S NPM RELEASE TIME!
Kat: Hooray! Full team again, and we've got a pretty small patch release this
week, about everyone's favorite recurring issue: git URLs!
Rebecca: No Way! Again?
Kat: The ride never ends! In the meantime, there's some fun, exciting work in
the background to get orgs and teams out the door. Keep an eye out for news. :)
Rebecca: And make sure to keep an eye out for patches for the super-fresh
`npm@3`!
#### LET'S GIT INKY
Rebecca: So what's this about another git URL issue?
Kat: Welp, I apparently broke backwards-compatibility on what are actually
invalid `git+https` URLs! So I'm making it work, but we're gonna deprecate URLs
that look like `git+https://user@host:path/is/here`.
Rebecca: What should we use instead?!
Kat: Just do me a solid and use `git+ssh://user@host:path/here` or
`git+https://user@host/absolute/https/path` instead!
* [`769f06e`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/769f06e5455d7a9fc738379de2e05868df0dab6f)

`.npmrc` to clarify that it's not read at the project level when doing global
installs.

### v2.13.0 (2015-07-02):
#### FORREST IS OUT! LET'S SNEAK IN ALL THE THINGS!
Well, not _everything_. Just a couple of goodies, like the new `npm ping`
command, and the ability to add files to the commits created by `npm version`
with the new version hooks. There's also a couple of bugfixes in `npm` itself
and some of its dependencies. Here we go!
#### YES HELLO THIS IS NPM REGISTRY SORRY NO DOG HERE
Yes, that's right! We now have a dedicated `npm ping` command. It's super simple
and super easy. You ping. We tell you whether you pinged right by saying hello
right back. This should help out folks dealing with things like proxy issues or
other registry-access debugging issues. Give it a shot!
This addresses [#5750](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/5750), and will help
with the `npm doctor` stuff described in
[#6756](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/6756).

#### I'VE WANTED THIS FOR `version` SINCE LIKE LITERALLY FOREVER AND A DAY
Seriously! This patch lets you add files to the `version` commit before it's
made, So you can add additional metadata files, more automated changes to
`package.json`, or even generate `CHANGELOG.md` automatically pre-commit if
you're into that sort of thing. I'm so happy this is there I can't even. Do you
have other fun usecases for this? Tell

#### ALL YOUR FILE DESCRIPTORS ARE BELONG TO US
We've had problems in the past with things like `EMFILE` errors popping up when
trying to install packages with a bunch of dependencies. Isaac patched up
[`graceful-fs`](https://github.com/isaacs/node-graceful-fs) to handle this case
better, so we should be seeing fewer of those.

### v2.12.1 (2015-06-25):
#### HEY WHERE DID EVERYBODY GO
I keep [hearing some commotion](https://github.com/npm/npm/releases/tag/v3.0.0).
Is there something going on? Like, a party or something? Anyway, here's a small
release with at least two significant bug fixes, at least one of which some of
you have been waiting for for quite a while.
#### REMEMBER WHEN I SAID "REMEMBER WHEN I SAID THAT THING ABOUT PERMISSIONS?"?
`npm@2.12.0` has a change that introduces a fix for a permissions problem
whereby the `_locks` directory in the cache directory can up being owned by
root. The fix in 2.12.0 takes care of that problem, but introduces a new
problem for Windows users where npm tries to call `process.getuid()`, which
doesn't exist on Windows. It was easy enough to fix (but more or less
impossible to test, thanks to all the external dependencies involved with
permissions and platforms and whatnot), but as a result, Windows users might
want to skip `npm@2.12.0` and go straight to `npm@2.12.1`. Sorry about that!
* [`7e5da23`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/7e5da238ee869201fdb9027c27b79b0f76b440a8)
When using the new, "fixed" cache directory creator, be extra-careful to not
call `process.getuid()` on platforms that lack it.
([@othiym23](https://github.com/othiym23))
#### WHEW! ALL DONE FIXING GIT FOREVER!
New npm CLI team hero [@zkat](https://github.com/zkat) has finally (FINALLY)
fixed the regression somebody (hi!) introduced a couple months ago whereby git
URLs of the format `git+ssh://user@githost.com:org/repo.git` suddenly stopped
working, and also started being saved (and cached) incorrectly. I am 100% sure
there are absolutely no more bugs in the git caching code at all ever. Mm hm.
Yep. Pretty sure. Maybe. Hmm... I hope.

### v2.12.0 (2015-06-18):
#### REMEMBER WHEN I SAID THAT THING ABOUT PERMISSIONS?
About [a million people](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue+EACCES+_locks)
have filed issues related to having a tough time using npm after they've run
npm once or twice with sudo. "Don't worry about it!" I said. "We've fixed all
those permissions problems ages ago! Use this one weird trick and you'll never
have to deal with this again!"
Well, uh, if you run npm with root the first time you run npm on a machine, it
turns out that the directory npm uses to store lockfiles ends up being owned by
the wrong user (almost always root), and that can, well, it can cause problems
sometimes. By which I mean every time you run npm without being root it'll barf
with `EACCES` errors. Whoops!
This is an obnoxious regression, and to prevent it from recurring, we've made
it so that the cache, cached git remotes, and the lockfile directories are all
created and maintained using the same utilty module, which not only creates the
relevant paths with the correct permissions, but will fix the permissions on
those directories (if it can) when it notices that they're broken. An `npm
install` run as root ought to be sufficient to fix things up (and if that
doesn't work, first tell us about it, and then run `sudo chown -R $(whoami)
$HOME/.npm`)
Also, I apologize for inadvertently gaslighting any of you by claiming this bug
wasn't actually a bug. I do think we've got this permanently dealt with now,
but I'll be paying extra-close attention to permissions issues related to the
cache for a while.
* [`85d1a53`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/85d1a53d7b5e0fc04823187e522ae3711ede61fa)

#### I WENT TO NODECONF AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS LOUSY SPDX T-SHIRT
That's not literally true. We spent very little time discussing SPDX,
[@kemitchell](https://github.com/kemitchell) is a champ, and I had a lot of fun
playing drum & bass to a mostly empty Boogie Barn and only ended up with one
moderately severe cold for my pains. Another winner of a NodeConf! (I would
probably wear a SPDX T-shirt if somebody gave me one, though.)
A bunch of us did have a spirited discussion of the basics of open-source
intellectual property, and the convergence of me,
[@kemitchell](https://github.com/kemitchell), and
[@jandrieu](https://github.com/jandrieu) in one place allowed us to hammmer out
a small but significant issue that had been bedeviling early adopters of the
new SPDX expression syntax in `package.json` license fields: how to deal with
packages that are left without a license on purpose.
Refer to [the docs](https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/16a3dd545b10f8a2464e2037506ce39124739b41/doc/files/package.json.md#license)
for the specifics, but the short version is that instead of using
`LicenseRef-LICENSE` for proprietary licenses, you can now use either
`UNLICENSED` if you want to make it clear that you don't _want_ your software
to be licensed (and want npm to stop warning you about this), or `SEE LICENSE
IN <filename>` if there's a license with custom text you want to use. At some
point in the near term, we'll be updating npm to verify that the mentioned
file actually exists, but for now you're all on the honor system.

([@simov](https://github.com/simov))
### v2.11.0 (2015-05-21):
For the first time in a very long time, we've added new events to the life
cycle used by `npm run-script`. Since running `npm version (major|minor|patch)`
is typically the last thing many developers do before publishing their updated
packages, it makes sense to add life cycle hooks to run tests or otherwise
preflight the package before doing a full publish. Thanks, as always, to the
indefatigable [@watilde](https://github.com/watilde) for yet another great
usability improvement for npm!
#### FEATURELETS

[#7906](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/7906)
Add new [`scripts`](https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/master/doc/misc/npm-scripts.md) to
allow you to run scripts before and after
the [`npm version`](https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/master/doc/cli/npm-version.md)
command has run. This makes it easy to, for instance, require that your
test suite passes before bumping the version by just adding `"preversion":
"npm test"` to the scripts section of your `package.json`.

### v2.10.0 (2015-05-8):
#### THE IMPLICATIONS ARE MORE PROFOUND THAN THEY APPEAR
If you've done much development in The Enterprise®™, you know that keeping
track of software licenses is far more important than one might expect / hope /
fear. Tracking licenses is a hassle, and while many (if not most) of us have
(reluctantly) gotten around to setting a license to use by default with all our
new projects (even if it's just WTFPL), that's about as far as most of us think
about it. In big enterprise shops, ensuring that projects don't inadvertently
use software with unacceptably encumbered licenses is serious business, and
developers spend a surprising (and appalling) amount of time ensuring that
licensing is covered by writing automated checkers and other license auditing
tools.
The Linux Foundation has been working on a machine-parseable syntax for license
expressions in the form of [SPDX](https://spdx.org/), an appropriately
enterprisey acronym. IP attorney and JavaScript culture hero [Kyle
Mitchell](http://kemitchell.com/) has put a considerable amount of effort into
bringing SPDX to JavaScript and Node. He's written
[`spdx.js`](https://github.com/kemitchell/spdx.js), a JavaScript SPDX
expression parser, and has integrated it into npm in a few different ways.
For you as a user of npm, this means:
* npm now has proper support for dual licensing in `package.json`, due to
SPDX's compound expression syntax. Run `npm help package.json` for details.
* npm will warn you if the `package.json` for your project is either missing a
`"license"` field, or if the value of that field isn't a valid SPDX
expression (pro tip: `"BSD"` becomes `"BSD-2-Clause"` in SPDX (unless you
really want one of its variants); `"MIT"` and `"ISC"` are fine as-is; the
[full list](https://github.com/shinnn/spdx-license-ids/blob/master/spdx-license-ids.json)
is its own package).
* `npm init` now demands that you use a valid SPDX expression when using it
interactively (pro tip: I mostly use `npm init -y`, having previously run
`npm config set init.license=MIT` / `npm config set init.author.email=foo` /
`npm config set init.author.name=me`).
* The documentation for `package.json` has been updated to tell you how to use
the `"license"` field properly with SPDX.
In general, this shouldn't be a big deal for anybody other than people trying
to run their own automated license validators, but in the long run, if
everybody switches to this format, many people's lives will be made much
simpler. I think this is an important improvement for npm and am very thankful
to Kyle for taking the lead on this. Also, even if you think all of this is
completely stupid, just [choose a license](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/License-free_software)
anyway. Future you will thank past you someday, unless you are
[djb](http://cr.yp.to/), in which case you are djb, and more power to you.

([@othiym23](https://github.com/othiym23))
As a corollary to the previous changes, I've put some work into making `npm
install` spew out fewer pointless warnings about missing values in transitive
dependencies. From now on, npm will only warn you about missing READMEs,
license fields, and the like for top-level projects (including packages you
directly install into your application, but we may relax that eventually).
Practically _nobody_ liked having those warnings displayed for child
dependencies, for the simple reason that there was very little that anybody
could _do_ about those warnings, unless they happened to be the maintainers of
those dependencies themselves. Since many, many projects don't have
SPDX-compliant licenses, the number of warnings reached a level where they ran
the risk of turning into a block of visual noise that developers (read: me, and
probably you) would ignore forever.
So I fixed it. If you still want to see the messages about child dependencies,
they're still there, but have been pushed down a logging level to `info`. You
can display them by running `npm install -d` or `npm install --loglevel=info`.

### v2.9.1 (2015-04-30):
#### WOW! MORE GIT FIXES! YOU LOVE THOSE!
The first item below is actually a pretty big deal, as it fixes (with a
one-word change and a much, much longer test case (thanks again,
[@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))) a regression that's been around for months
now. If you're depending on multiple branches of a single git dependency in a
single project, you probably want to check out `npm@2.9.1` and verify that
things (again?) work correctly in your project.

dependencies, do so by the whole URL, including the branch name, so that if a

first. ([@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))

#### DOCUMENTATION FIXES AND TWEAKS
These changes may seem simple and small (except Lin's fix to the package name
restrictions, which was more an egregious oversight on our part), but cleaner
documentation makes npm significantly more pleasant to use. I really appreciate
all the typo fixes, clarifications, and formatting tweaks people send us, and
am delighted that we get so many of these pull requests. Thanks, everybody!

clearly document the full restrictions on package names.
[@linclark](https://github.com/linclark) has now fixed that, although we will
take with us to our graves the reasons why the maximum package name length is 214
characters (well, OK, it was that that was the longest name in the registry
when we decided to put a cap on the name length).

querying the network configuration requires elevated privileges (e.g. Amazon
Lambda). Add the return, and trap errors so they don't cause npm to explode.

### v2.9.0 (2015-04-23):
This week was kind of a breather to concentrate on fixing up the tests on the
`multi-stage` branch, and not mess with git issues for a little while.
Unfortunately, There are now enough severe git issues that we'll probably have
to spend another couple weeks tackling them. In the meantime, enjoy these two
small features. They're just enough to qualify for a semver-minor bump:

This is the last of a set of releases intended to ensure npm's git support is

### v2.8.2 (2015-04-14):
#### PEACE IN OUR TIME
npm has been having an issue with CouchDB's web server since the release
of io.js and Node.js 0.12.0 that has consumed a huge amount of my time
to little visible effect. Sam Mikes picked up the thread from me, and
after a [_lot_ of effort](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/7699#issuecomment-93091111)
figured out that ultimately there are probably a couple problems with
the new HTTP Agent keep-alive handling in new versions of Node. In
addition, `npm-registry-client` was gratuitously sending a body along
with a GET request which was triggering the bugs. Sam removed about 10 bytes from
one file in `npm-registry-client`, and this problem, which has been bugging us for months,
completely went away.
In conclusion, Sam Mikes is great, and anybody using a private registry
hosted on CouchDB should thank him for his hard work. Also, thanks to
the community at large for pitching in on this bug, which has been
around for months now.

### v2.8.1 (2015-04-12):
#### CORRECTION: NPM'S GIT INTEGRATION IS DOING OKAY
A [helpful bug report](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/7872#issuecomment-91809553)
led to another round of changes to
[`hosted-git-info`](https://github.com/npm/hosted-git-info/commit/827163c74531b69985d1ede7abced4861e7b0cd4),
some additional test-writing, and a bunch of hands-on testing against actual
private repositories. While the complexity of npm's git dependency handling is
nearly fractal (because npm is very complex, and git is even more complex),
it's feeling way more solid than it has for a while. We think this is a
substantial improvement over what we had before, so give `npm@2.8.1` a shot if
you have particularly complex git use cases and
[let us know](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/new) how it goes.
(NOTE: These changes mostly affect cloning and saving references to packages
hosted in git repositories, and don't address some known issues with things
like lifecycle scripts not being run on npm dependencies. Work continues on
other issues that affect parity between git and npm registry packages.)

#### SCOPED DEPENDENCIES AND PEER DEPENDENCIES: NOT QUITE REESE'S
Big thanks to [@ewie](https://github.com/ewie) for identifying an issue with
how npm was handling `peerDependencies` that were implicitly installed from the
`package.json` files of scoped dependencies. This
[will be a moot point](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/6565#issuecomment-74971689)
with the release of `npm@3`, but until then, it's important that
`peerDependency` auto-installation work as expected.

#### MAKING IT EASIER TO WRITE NPM TESTS, VERSION 0.0.1
[@iarna](https://github.com/iarna) and I
([@othiym23](https://github.com/othiym23)) have been discussing a
[candidate plan](https://github.com/npm/npm/wiki/rewriting-npm's-tests:-a-plan-maybe)
for improving npm's test suite, with the goal of making it easier for new
contributors to get involved with npm by reducing the learning curve
necessary to be able to write good tests for proposed changes. This is the
first substantial piece of that effort. Here's what the commit message for
[`ed7e249`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/ed7e249d50444312cd266942ce3b89e1ca049bdf)
had to say about this work:
> It's too difficult for npm contributors to figure out what the conventional
> style is for tests. Part of the problem is that the documentation in
> CONTRIBUTING.md is inadequate, but another important factor is that the tests
> themselves are written in a variety of styles. One of the most notable
> examples of this is the fact that many tests use fixture directories to store
> precooked test scenarios and package.json files.
>
> This had some negative consequences:
>
> * tests weren't idempotent
> * subtle dependencies between tests existed
> * new tests get written in this deprecated style because it's not
> obvious that the style is out of favor
> * it's hard to figure out why a lot of those directories existed,
> because they served a variety of purposes, so it was difficult to
> tell when it was safe to remove them
>
> All in all, the fixture directories were a major source of technical debt, and
> cleaning them up, while time-consuming, makes the whole test suite much more
> approachable, and makes it more likely that new tests written by outside
> contributors will follow a conventional style. To support that, all of the
> tests touched by this changed were cleaned up to pass the `standard` style
> checker.
And here's a little extra context from a comment I left on [#7929](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/7929):
> One of the other things that encouraged me was looking at this

### v2.8.0 (2015-04-09):
#### WE WILL NEVER BE DONE FIXING NPM'S GIT SUPPORT
If you look at [the last release's release
notes](https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#git-mean-git-tuff-git-all-the-way-away-from-my-stuff),
you will note that they confidently assert that it's perfectly OK to force all
GitHub URLs through the same `git:` -> `git+ssh:` fallback flow for cloning. It
turns out that many users depend on `git+https:` URLs in their build
environments because they use GitHub auth tokens instead of SSH keys. Also, in
some cases you just want to be able to explicitly say how a given dependency
should be cloned from GitHub.
Because of the way we resolved the inconsistency in GitHub shorthand handling
[before](https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#bug-fixes-1), this
turned out to be difficult to work around. So instead of hacking around it, we
completely redid how git is handled within npm and its attendant packages.
Again. This time, we changed things so that `normalize-package-data` and
`read-package-json` leave more of the git logic to npm itself, which makes
handling shorthand syntax consistently much easier, and also allows users to
resume using explicit, fully-qualified git URLs without npm messing with them.
Here's a summary of what's changed:
* Instead of converting the GitHub shorthand syntax to a `git+ssh:`, `git:`, or
`git+https:` URL and saving that, save the shorthand itself to
`package.json`.
* If presented with shortcuts, try cloning via the git protocol, SSH, and HTTPS
(in that order).
* No longer prompt for credentials -- it didn't work right with the spinner,
and wasn't guaranteed to work anyway. We may experiment with doing this a
better way in the future. Users can override this by setting `GIT_ASKPASS` in
their environment if they want to experiment with interactive cloning, but
should also set `--no-spin` on the npm command line (or run `npm config set
spin=false`).
* **EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE**: Add support for `github:`, `gist:`, `bitbucket:`,
and `gitlab:` shorthand prefixes. GitHub shortcuts will continue to be
normalized to `org/repo` instead of being saved as `github:org/repo`, but
`gitlab:`, `gist:`, and `bitbucket:` prefixes will be used on the command
line and from `package.json`. BE CAREFUL WITH THIS. `package.json` files
published with the new shorthand syntax can _only_ be read by `npm@2.8.0` and
later, and this feature is mostly meant for playing around with it. If you
want to save git dependencies in a form that older versions of npm can read,
use `--save-exact`, which will save the git URL and resolved commit hash of
the head of the branch in a manner similar to the way that `--save-exact`
pins versions for registry dependencies. This is documented (so check `npm
help install` for details), but we're not going to make a lot of noise about
it until it has a chance to bake in a little more.
It is [@othiym23](https://github.com/othiym23)'s sincere hope that this will
resolve all of the inconsistencies users were seeing with GitHub and git-hosted
packages, but given the level of change here, that may just be a fond wish.
Extra testing of this change is requested.

### v2.7.6 (2015-04-02):
#### GIT MEAN, GIT TUFF, GIT ALL THE WAY AWAY FROM MY STUFF
Part of the reason that we're reluctant to take patches to how npm deals with
git dependencies is that every time we touch the git support, something breaks.
The last few releases are a case in point. `npm@2.7.4` completely broke
installing private modules from GitHub, and `npm@2.7.5` fixed them at the cost
of logging a misleading error message that caused many people to believe that
their dependencies hadn't been successfully installed when they actually had
been.
This all started from a desire to ensure that GitHub shortcut syntax is being
handled correctly. The correct behavior is for npm to try to clone all
dependencies on GitHub (whether they're specified with the GitHub
`organization/repository` shortcut syntax or not) via the plain `git:` protocol
first, and to fall back to using `git+ssh:` if `git:` doesn't work. Previously,
sometimes npm would use `git:` and `git+ssh:` in some cases (most notably when
using GitHub shortcut syntax on the command line), and use `git+https:` in
others (when the GitHub shortcut syntax was present in `package.json`). This
led to subtle and hard-to-understand inconsistencies, and we're glad that as of
`npm@2.7.6`, we've finally gotten things to where they were before we started,
only slightly more consistent overall.
We are now going to go back to our policy of being extremely reluctant to touch

* [`78005eb`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/78005ebb6f4103c20f077669c3929b7ea46a4c0d)
[#7743](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/7743) Always quote arguments passed
to `npm run-script`. This allows build systems and the like to safely escape
glob patterns passed as arguments to `run-scripts` with `npm run-script
<script> -- <arguments>`. This is a tricky change to test, and may be
reverted or moved to `npm@3` if it turns out it breaks things for users.

### v2.7.0 (2015-02-26):
#### SOMETIMES SEMVER MEANS "SUBJECTIVE-EMPATHETIC VERSIONING"
For a very long time (maybe forever?), the documentation for `npm run-script`
has said that `npm restart` will only call `npm stop` and `npm start` when
there is no command defined as `npm restart` in `package.json`. The problem
with this documentation is that `npm run-script` was apparently never wired up
to actually work this way.
Until now.
If the patch below were landed on its own, free of context, it would be a
breaking change. But, since the "new" behavior is how the documentation claims
this feature has always worked, I'm classifying it as a patch-level bug fix. I
apologize in advance if this breaks anybody's deployment scripts, and if it
turns out to be a significant regression in practice, we can revert this change
and move it to `npm@3`, which is allowed to make breaking changes due to being
a new major version of semver.
* [`2f6a1df`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/2f6a1df3e1e3e0a3bc4abb69e40f59a64204e7aa)
[#1999](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/1999) Only run `stop` and `start`
scripts (plus their pre- and post- scripts) when there's no `restart` script
defined. This makes it easier to support graceful restarts of services
managed by npm. ([@watilde](https://github.com/watilde) /

#### A SMALL FEATURE WITH BIG IMPLICATIONS
* [`145af65`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/145af6587f45de135cc876be2027ed818ed4ca6a)
[#4887](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/4887) Replace calls to the
`node-gyp` script bundled with npm by passing the
`--node-gyp=/path/to/node-gyp` option to npm. Swap in `pangyp` or a version
of `node-gyp` modified to work better with io.js without having to touch
npm's code! ([@ackalker](https://github.com/ackalker))
#### [@WATILDE'S](https://github.com/watilde) NPM USABILITY CORNER
Following `npm@2.6.1`'s unexpected fix of many of the issues with `npm update
-g` simply by making `--depth=0` the default for `npm outdated`, friend of npm
[@watilde](https://github.com/watilde) has made several modest changes to npm's
behavior that together justify bumping npm's minor version, as well as making
npm significantly more pleasant to use:

### v2.4.0 (2015-01-22):
#### REGISTRY 2: ACCESS AND DIST-TAGS
NOTE: This week's registry-2 commands are leading the implementation on
registry.npmjs.org a little bit, so some of the following may not work for
another week or so. Also note that `npm access` has documentation and
subcommands that are not yet finished, because they depend on incompletely

### v1.3.20 (2013-12-17):
* Fixes a critical bug in v1.3.19. Thankfully, due to that bug, no one could
install npm v1.3.19 :)
### v1.3.19 (2013-12-16):
* Adds atomic PUTs for publishing packages, which should result in far fewer
requests and less room for replication errors on the server-side.
### v1.3.18 (2013-12-16):
* Added an `--ignore-scripts` option, which will prevent `package.json` scripts
from being run. Most notably, this will work on `npm install`, so e.g. `npm
install --ignore-scripts` will not run preinstall and prepublish scripts.

[`644c2ff`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/644c2ff3e3d9c93764f7045762477f48864d64a7),
which avoided re-downloading URL and shinkwrap dependencies when doing `npm
install`. You can see the in-depth reasoning in
[`d8c907e`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/d8c907edc2019b75cff0f53467e34e0ffd7e5fba);
the problem was, that the patch changed the behavior of `npm install -f` to
reinstall all dependencies.
* A new version of the no-re-downloading fix has been submitted as
[#4303](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/4303) and will hopefully be
included in the next release.
### v1.3.16 (2013-12-11):
* Git URL dependencies are now updated on `npm install`, fixing a two-year old
bug

reducing the resulting Git-related I/O is tracked as

big improvement.

job of `npm version` minus the Git tagging. This could be useful if you need
to increase the version in other related files before actually adding the
tag.
