PNpM CLI

Minor Changes

• Added global build approvals pnpm/pnpm#14101.

Patch Changes

• Fixed pnpm v11 incorrectly reporting confirmModulesPurge as unrecognized when set in pnpm-workspace.yaml. The Rust CLI now identifies the unsupported option as a pnpm v11 setting instead of suggesting an unrelated setting.

• pnpm install --frozen-lockfile no longer fails with ERR_PNPM_FROZEN_LOCKFILE_WITH_OUTDATED_LOCKFILE when the pinned pnpm version recorded in pnpm-lock.yaml has to be re-resolved before it can be installed. It runs the pnpm version the lockfile pins and leaves the lockfile unchanged #14124.

• Under nodeLinker: hoisted, peer-resolution variants of an injected directory dependency (a file: snapshot) are materialized as separate copies again instead of collapsing onto the first-seen variant. Each copy keeps its own peer-resolved dependency set, so a project pinning one peer version no longer resolves another project's variant — Bit root components with conflicting peers across injected copies rely on this.

• Fixed pnpm install --merge-git-branch-lockfiles --frozen-lockfile failing with ERR_PNPM_OUTDATED_LOCKFILE when a branch lockfile predates the removal of a dependency, or its move to another dependency group #13966. A dependency that no project declares anymore is no longer reinstated by the merge, and the packages it was the only path to are dropped with it.

• Batch workspace publishing accepts a shared scope-specific credential, rejects mismatched credentials for a registry before publishing, and runs the publish and postpublish scripts after each completed registry group pnpm/pnpm#14101.

• The Rust CLI now honors five settings it recognized but ignored: updateNotifier, legacyDirFiltering, initAuthorName / initAuthorEmail / initAuthorUrl, initLicense, and initVersion. pnpm install and pnpm add check once a day for a newer pnpm and print how to get it (turn it off with updateNotifier: false); a {<dir>} filter selector can go back to matching the subtree below the directory with legacyDirFiltering: true; and pnpm init writes the configured author, license, and version into the package.json it scaffolds. PNPM_CONFIG_INIT_VERSION is now read as well.

  maxsockets, npm's spelling of maxSockets, is no longer ignored: both spellings are read from pnpm-workspace.yaml, the global config file, the environment, and the command line, in that increasing order of precedence — a value passed on the command line now wins even when the two sides spelled the setting differently.

  A lastUpdateCheck timestamp dated in the future — after a clock change, a restored snapshot, or a hand-edited state file — no longer silences the update check until that time comes around.

  legacyDirFiltering no longer reaches the workspace-root selectors pnpm generates for itself: the !{<workspace-root>} exclusion a recursive run / exec / add / test appends, and the {<workspace-root>} inclusion --workspace-root appends. Read as subtree matches they named every project below the root, so a recursive command under the setting selected nothing at all, and --workspace-root pulled in every project below the root instead of the root alone #14101.

• pnpm install --frozen-lockfile no longer fails when pnpm-lock.yaml records the pinned pnpm version alongside an engine package the running pnpm does not install it from. An entry pinning another version is still refused, and a plain install rewrites the block #14124.
