Description of Changes

Hey y'all! This release is a bit of a doozy:

  • It includes a ton of bugfixes that should seriously stabilize npm after that big 5.0 release (more coming!). A bunch of folks who couldn't use npm5 are now able to use it!
  • A semver-minor bump with several small feature additions because technically-semver
  • Another semver-minor bump that adds of npx to the primary npm distribution. This change in particular required modification of the node installers, based on the discussion in https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/13640.
