commit-stream 3.0.0 locks imports to the package root

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

commit-stream's 3.0.0 adds types and package exports that cut off deep imports, and the same repo's dependency cleanup removes through2 and bl while its CI drops old Node.js release lines.

v3.0.0 nodejs/commit-stream

by github-actions[bot]

The exports field restricts imports to the package root, so any consumer reaching into internal paths (src/ or dist/ submodules) breaks on upgrade. Types now ship alongside, which is the reason the export map exists.

chore(deps): remove through2 and bl (#31) nodejs/commit-stream

by Rod Vagg

through2 and bl are gone from the dependency tree, which matters if anything downstream relied on commit-stream's transitive copies of either, or if `npm dedupe` was relying on them existing at all.

chore(ci): drop old Node.js release lines (#32) nodejs/commit-stream

by Rod Vagg

The CI matrix no longer tests old Node.js release lines, so fixes for those runtimes will stop being caught. Rod Vagg landed this alongside the dependency removal.

chore(release): 2.2.1 [skip ci] nodejs/commit-stream

by semantic-release-bot

The 2.2.1 patch accepts CVE IDs with four or more sequence digits, so longer CVE identifiers now parse; the same release migrates tests from tape to the node test runner.

feat: setup bundle workflow nodejs/microtel

by legendecas

The long tail: microtel set up a bundle workflow for node core integration and a benchmark-comparison job that runs a PR against its base branch and posts the delta on the GHA summary page, and branch-diff published 4.0.1 with only an actions/setup-node bump.
