Lock down dependency versions for publication
Synopsis
npm shrinkwrap
Description
This command repurposes package-lock.json into a publishable
npm-shrinkwrap.json or simply creates a new one. The file created and updated
by this command will then take precedence over any other existing or future
package-lock.json files. For a detailed explanation of the design and purpose
of package locks in npm, see package-locks.
