Dev dependency maintenance across nodejs tooling

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Node.js · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

A quiet day on the Node.js org: two release-bot cuts and one dev-dependency bump, nothing that touches runtime code.

build(deps-dev): bump eslint from 9.39.4 to 10.12.0 nodejs/undici

by dependabot

Undici pulls in eslint 10.12.0 for its own linting, and that major version line adds a case-handling fix to the new-cap rule for astral letters. Nothing in undici's published package changes; the effect is confined to CI lint runs.

chore(release): 5.0.9 [skip ci] nodejs/changelog-maker

by semantic-release-bot

changelog-maker cut 5.0.9, whose only entry is a dev-dependency bump of handlebars from 4.7.9 to 4.7.10. No change to how changelogs are generated.

chore(release): 1.8.31 [skip ci] nodejs/nodejs-dist-indexer

by semantic-release-bot

nodejs-dist-indexer shipped 1.8.31 carrying the same handlebars 4.7.9 to 4.7.10 dev bump, tagged trivial by the release bot.
