PNpM CLI

Features

• New setting: shell-emulator #2621

  When shell-emulator is true, pnpm will use a shell emulator to execute scripts. So things like FOO=1 pnpm run foo and other simple bash syntax will work on Windows.

  pnpm uses the shell emulator that was developed for Yarn v2: @yarnpkg/shell.

• Excluding projects using --filter=!<selector> #2804

  Packages may be excluded from a command's scope, using "!" at the beginning of the selector.

  For instance, this will run tests in all projects except foo:

  pnpm --filter=!foo test
  

  And this one will run tests in all projects that are not under the lib directory:

  pnpm --filter=!./lib test
  

Bug Fixes

• When searching for a global bin directory, also look for symlinked commands #2888.
• Don’t remove non‑pnpm .dot_files from node_modules #2833.
• During publish, check the active branch name after checking if the branch is clean.
• The INIT_CWD env variable is always set to the lockfile directory for scripts of dependencies #2897.
• When a package is both a dev dependency and a prod dependency, the package should be linked when installing prod dependencies only. This was an issue only when a lockfile was not present during installation #2882.
