Summary
When using
--dev
option withnpm install
, the command prints this deprecation message:The
--only
option was added within npm/npm#9024 and with--only=dev
, onlydevDependencies
are installed. This PR also introduced the--also
option which can install bothdependencies
anddevDependencies
. I have checked thatnpm install --dev
installs bothdependencies
anddevDependencies
(see https://github.com/npm/cli/blob/latest/lib/install.js#L233), so I think that the correct message should be:I have added the deprecation message also to
npm ci --dev
. If this PR is approved I will add the--also
option to npm install documentation.References
