Description : Efficent NPM replacement
PNPM is a disk-efficent replacement for the NPM command. It
prevents duplication of package files across projects by hard
linking files to a content-addressed store. It is a great solution
for developers with limited hard-drive space, or a large number of
projects.
- ----
While I would love to package this myself, I do not work with
_javascript_ regularally (in part due to ecosystem problems like
NPM's love of duplication). As such, I am filing this as an RFP,
as opposed to an ITP.
I did a quick-and-dirty, *non-free*, package of pnpm (made out of bundled pnpm tarball)
Allowing pnpm to build itself won't be easy, though, and will come with a huge load
of bundled / non-bundled dependencies.
