Description of change

Lo and behold, I come bearing a shiny new npm@3 release! Since we've released npm@4, over at #9284, this is quite possibly one of the final npm@3 releases, barring critical and security bugfixes. As far as things go on our own end, we consider both npm@2 and npm@3 to be in maintenance mode, but will continue to support both versions, as far as working-with-the-registry-and-for-most-uses, until y'all's current LTS versions lapse. We'll be putting our efforts into npm@4 from here on out, and then npm@5 which will follow suit early next year.

Notable Changes
  • Many bugfixes, including a fairly significant shrinkwrap issue with git and tagged dependencies
  • Doc updates
  • Dep updates
