## v5.4.0 (2017-08-22): | ||
|
||
Here's another ~~small~~ big release, with a ~~handful~~ bunch of fixes and | ||
a couple of ~~small~~ new features! This release has been incubating rather | ||
longer than usual and it's grown quite a bit in that time. I'm also excited | ||
to say that it has contributions from **27** different folks, which is a new | ||
record for us. Our previous record was 5.1.0 at 21. Before that the record | ||
had been held by 1.3.16 since _December of 2013_. | ||

||

|
||
If you can't get enough of the bleeding edge, I encourage you to check out | ||
our canary release of npm. Get it with `npm install -g npmc`. It's going to | ||
be seeing some exciting stuff in the next couple of weeks, starting with a | ||
rewriten `npm dedupe`, but moving on to… well, you'll just have to wait and | ||
find out. | ||
|
||
### PERFORMANCE | ||
|
||
* [`d080379f6`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/d080379f620c716afa2c1d2e2ffc0a1ac3459194) | ||
`[email protected]` Updates extract to use tar@4, which is much faster than the | ||
older tar@2. It reduces install times by as much as 10%. | ||
([@zkat](https://github.com/zkat)) | ||
* [`4cd6a1774`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/4cd6a1774f774506323cae5685c9ca9a10deab63) | ||
[`0195c0a8c`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/0195c0a8cdf816834c2f737372194ddc576c451d) | ||
[#16804](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/16804) | ||
`[email protected]` Update publish to use tar@4. tar@4 brings many advantages | ||
over tar@2: It's faster, better tested and easier to work with. It also | ||
produces exactly the same byte-for-byte output when producing tarballs | ||
from the same set of files. This will have some nice carry on effects for | ||
things like caching builds from git. And finally, last but certainly not | ||
least, upgrading to it also let's us finally eliminate `fstream`—if | ||
you know what that is you'll know why we're so relieved. | ||

|
||
* [`1ac470dd2`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/1ac470dd283cc7758dc37721dd6331d5b316dc99) | ||
[#10382](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/10382) | ||
If you make a typo when writing a command now, npm will print a brief "did you | ||
mean..." message with some possible alternatives to what you meant. | ||
([@watilde](https://github.com/watilde)) | ||
* [`20c46228d`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/20c46228d8f9243910f8c343f4830d52455d754e) | ||
[#12356](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/12356) | ||
When running lifecycle scripts, `INIT_CWD` will now contain the original | ||
working directory that npm was executed from. Remember that you can use `npm | ||
run-script` even if you're not inside your package root directory! | ||

`[email protected]`: Fixes a number of issues on Windows and adds support for | ||
several more languages: Korean, Norwegian (bokmål and nynorsk), Ukrainian, | ||
Serbian, Bahasa Indonesia, Polish, Dutch and Arabic. | ||
([@zkat](https://github.com/zkat)) | ||

hooks when committing the version bump. | ||

[#17844](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/17844) | ||
Make package-lock.json sorting locale-agnostic. Previously, sorting would vary | ||
by locale, due to using `localeCompare` for key sorting. This'll give you | ||
a little package-lock.json churn as it reshuffles things, sorry! | ||

[#18117](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/18117) | ||
Some package managers would write spaces to the \_from field in package.json's in the | ||
form of `name @spec`. This was causing npm to fail to interpret them. We now handle that | ||
correctly and doubly make sure we don't do that ourselves. | ||

[#16476](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/16476) | ||
`[email protected]` Running an install with `--ignore-scripts` was resulting in the | ||
the package object being mutated to have the lifecycle scripts removed from it and that | ||
in turn was being written out to disk, causing further problems. This fixes that: | ||
No more mutation, no more unexpected changes. | ||

The tests in `test/tap/lifecycle-signal.js`, as well as the features | ||
they are testing, are partially broken. This moves them from | ||
being skipped in CI to being disabled only for certain platforms. | ||
In particular, because `npm` spawns its lifecycle scripts in a | ||
shell, signals are not necessarily forwarded by the shell and | ||
won’t cause scripts to exit; also, shells may report the signal | ||
they receive using their exit status, rather than terminating | ||
themselves with a signal. | ||
