Fixes #22689 (earlier: #24223 and #13823, closed).

Problem

  • bun ci (and bun install --production, which implies it) exits 0 on package.json edits that resolve to the locked packages, though the next bun install rewrites bun.lock: a retyped range, a dependency that moved group, a direct dependency the tree already has, a second workspace adding a locked dependency (bun install --frozen-lockfile allows bun.lock changes in workspaces #22689), a trusted or patched edit. pnpm and yarn reject these (npm ci does not).
  • The frozen check in install_with_manager.rs compares the resolved tree (Lockfile::eql) and the differ's overrides and catalog flags, not the other sections bun.lock records.

Fix

  • Lockfile::manifest_sections() collects what bun.lock records from the manifests: each workspace's (name, group, literal) dependencies and the trusted and patched entries that apply to the tree. After eql passes, the frozen check compares loaded against new and names the package.json and section that differ. Both sides are derived the same way, so only a rewrite a plain install makes can fail.
  • Diff::generate (lockfile/Package.rs) now counts a retyped range that still links the same workspace as an update, so the one bun install after changeset version records the new ranges and the committed bun.lock passes bun ci.
  • Still accepted: a bumped workspace version, and in a workspace project (the only kind a pruned checkout can be, install: pnpm parity — dedupe, prune, pm licenses, audit fix, add --filter/--catalog, nested overrides, transitive update, and workspace fixes #38333) a removed trusted name and a trusted or patched list bun.lock never recorded.
  • Verified: test/cli/install/frozen-lockfile-outdated.test.ts (48 tests, 22 fail on stock bun), more suites in Notes.

Background

  • Diff::generate compares the lockfile's packages with a fresh package.json parse and decides what is re-resolved. It over-reports for some stable repos, so the frozen check decides on values instead.
  • bun.lock records literals as written, no scripts, and one trustedDependencies list for all workspaces, filtered to the tree.
Notes
  • Reviewed again after the consolidation. Three concerns came up and all three are addressed in 07e2e0c: (1) after a coordinated workspace bump (lib 1.0.0 to 1.0.1 and app's "lib": "1.0.0" to "1.0.1", what changeset version writes) one bun install left the old literal in bun.lock, because both ranges link the workspace and compare equal in the differ, so the new check failed bun ci on bun's own output until a second install; with ^1.0.0 to ^1.0.1 the literal was never rewritten at all. The differ now treats a retyped literal on a workspace-linked dependency as an update (three test rows). (2) The body and docs claimed npm parity; npm ci accepts every row of the failing table (it only validates resolved versions), so both now say the rule is stricter than npm ci and matches pnpm install --frozen-lockfile and yarn install --immutable. (3) The docs now say that bun.lockb keeps the resolution, overrides and catalog check only.
  • Supersedes the --frozen-lockfile half of install: fail --frozen-lockfile on manifest drift and fix the spurious lockfile re-saves behind it #33632, which fixed the same drift by making the dependency differ exact for the root and every workspace member and then gating on it. Its failing-direction scenarios that apply to bun.lock are folded into the test file here (a direct dependency added or removed while it stays transitively, the ^1.0.0 to ^1.1.0 edit from bun install --frozen-lockfile does not fail when lockfile is out of sync #24223, a second workspace gaining a locked dependency from bun install --frozen-lockfile allows bun.lock changes in workspaces #22689), and its table of stable monorepo shapes from review (siblings linked by workspace:*, ranges, *, npm: aliases, catalog: and overrides, a $name override, lifecycle scripts and optional peers in members) runs as "still passes on an unchanged project", with a stale trustedDependencies name forcing the comparison and a bun ci from a clean node_modules. The bun.lock loader half of install: fail --frozen-lockfile on manifest drift and fix the spurious lockfile re-saves behind it #33632 landed separately as install: one workspace-link rule so bun.lock reloads match package.json #41302.
  • Not covered, left to separate changes: bun.lockb keeps the meta-hash check, so the bun install --frozen-lockfile does not exit with error when it should #13823 shape still passes there. A workspace member that the root reaches only through an override on an unsatisfied range ("lib": "^9.0.0" plus "overrides": {"lib": "workspace:*"}) is not re-read by the differ on main, so neither a plain install nor this check sees an edit to its package.json. "trustedDependencies": [] is not written to bun.lock, so an install from the lockfile puts the default trusted list back in effect (install: fail --frozen-lockfile on manifest drift and fix the spurious lockfile re-saves behind it #33632 wrote the empty list). install: warn when a patchedDependencies entry no longer applies, and fail --frozen-lockfile #40110 / patchedDependencies: a stale version key silently drops the patch, and --frozen-lockfile does not catch it #40106 (a patchedDependencies key orphaned by a version bump that already rewrote bun.lock) is a different trigger and still passes here.
  • Policy relative to install: pnpm parity — dedupe, prune, pm licenses, audit fix, add --filter/--catalog, nested overrides, transitive update, and workspace fixes #38333's tests: "patchedDependencies removed after bun.lock was written still passes" now fails (bun.lock recorded the entry, the root package.json dropped it; current turbo prune keeps entries for the packages it keeps, pnpm fails this with ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH). "patchedDependencies added after bun.lock was written still passes" is unchanged: in a workspace project a lockfile with no recorded entries is not compared, because turbo prune between feat(bun): bun prune support vercel/turborepo#10175 and fix(prune): Handle patchedDependencies for bun vercel/turborepo#11027 dropped the section, the same way it dropped trustedDependencies until fix(bun): Preserve overrides objects, trustedDependencies, workspace bins and git integrity through prune; accept lockfileVersion 3 vercel/turborepo#13740. Without workspaces there is no pruned checkout, so there the first trustedDependencies list or patchedDependencies entry fails like any other edit. That adapts one more install: pnpm parity — dedupe, prune, pm licenses, audit fix, add --filter/--catalog, nested overrides, transitive update, and workspace fixes #38333 test, "single-package project: trustedDependencies stripped from bun.lock does not drop a peer-held package": it keeps its purpose (a trusted-only difference must not drop the peer-held package) with a name that is not installed in place of the stripped section.
  • Why the first trustedDependencies list matters beyond lockfile churn: while bun.lock does not record the trust, the differ reports the package as newly trusted on every install, so every bun install --frozen-lockfile runs its lifecycle scripts again on the installed tree until a plain install records it (reproduced on canary b52d513 with a postinstall that appends to a file: x, xx, xxx). With the check, the frozen install stops first and the script runs once, on the plain install. Remaining gap: a workspace project adding its first list still passes frozen and re-runs the scripts, because that shape is indistinguishable from a bun.lock pruned by a turbo older than fix(bun): Preserve overrides objects, trustedDependencies, workspace bins and git integrity through prune; accept lockfileVersion 3 vercel/turborepo#13740 (2026-08-14). Dropping that exemption is a one-line change once those turbo versions have aged out.
  • Why workspace versions are exempt: bun pm version, changesets and similar tooling bump version without an install and bun.lock records member versions, so a strict check would fail every release commit. pnpm-lock.yaml does not record them and yarn writes 0.0.0-use.local. A release tool that also rewrites dependents' ranges (^1.0.0 to ^1.1.0) does change a recorded specifier and needs bun install --lockfile-only afterwards, as with pnpm and yarn.
  • Why trustedDependencies removals pass with workspaces: the recorded list is the union of every workspace's list, so a Docker context or turbo prune output without the workspace that declared a name would otherwise fail with nothing to commit. Without workspaces a removal fails.
  • Not changed: bun.lockb (still the meta hash), lockfiles migrated in the same run from package-lock.json / yarn.lock / pnpm-lock.yaml (written even under --frozen-lockfile, so not compared), resolution changes (eql fails as before, without a section note).
  • Two lockfiles bun itself wrote for an unedited package.json are tolerated, so an upgrade or a migration alone does not turn bun ci red. (1) A pnpm-lock.yaml migration records the catalog's range where package.json says catalog: (the migrator fix is install: migrate pnpm importer rows in the shape package.json parsing produces #38791, open): a catalog: dependency also matches a recorded literal equal to the range its catalog entry stands for. Checked end to end with the catalog fixture from pnpm-migration-complete.test.ts: bun pm migrate, then bun install --frozen-lockfile --lockfile-only exits 0 as on main. Moving to another catalog with the same range still fails. (2) bun.lock files from before install: global virtual store for isolated linker (7x faster warm installs) #29489 (2026-04-21) lack the * optional peer row bun now records for a peerDependenciesMeta-only name: a fresh * optional peer row that bun.lock does not list is skipped. A user adding "x": "*" as an optional peer looks the same and passes too. It cannot change what is installed, and a plain install still records it.
  • The comparison also catches a bun.lock that git merge joined wrongly. When a workspace's block ends with the same line as the root's, git merges two branches' bun.lock without conflict markers and puts a new root dependency into the workspace's block. The resolved tree is the same, so main passes --frozen-lockfile and the next plain install rewrites bun.lock. Here the frozen install exits 1 with note: bun.lock does not match dependencies in package.json (checked with a real git merge in a scratch repository, and covered by the test row "a root dependency that a merge put into a workspace's block of bun.lock"). The removal direction is covered the same way: dropping a dependency that another package still needs keeps the tree, so main passes the frozen install. Here it fails and names the package.json, for the root ("a dependency that stays in the tree transitively is removed") and for a workspace ("a workspace drops a dependency that the root still needs").
  • bun install --production implies --frozen-lockfile, so a Dockerfile that installs with --production now also fails on a hand-edited package.json whose bun.lock was not refreshed. The docs paragraph says so, and the section note test runs bun install --production next to bun ci. The hint line still reads try re-running without --frozen-lockfile in that case, as it already did for --production before this PR (pinned by the production = true snapshot in bun-install-registry.test.ts).
  • Any future change to what bun records for an unchanged package.json needs the same care, or bun ci fails once after the upgrade until the rewrite a plain install makes is committed. The "still passes on an unchanged project" table is the fence for that. The note for these sections reads bun.lock does not match dependencies in packages/app/package.json, so it stays true for a hand-merged, migrated or older lockfile. The overrides and catalog notes from install: pnpm parity — dedupe, prune, pm licenses, audit fix, add --filter/--catalog, nested overrides, transitive update, and workspace fixes #38333 keep their wording.
  • Checked that bun's own commands leave package.json and bun.lock in agreement, so the check does not fire after them: bun add (plain, exact, ~, -d on an existing dependency, inside a workspace), bun remove, bun update (bare, named, ~/exact/npm: alias, --latest, including catalog entries), bun pm trust, bun patch --commit. bun pm version in a workspace leaves only the version diff, which is exempt.
  • The arborist fixture edit-package-json--changed has abbrev: ^1.1.0 in package.json and ^1.1.1 in its package-lock.json. bun pm migrate writes the lockfile's specifier, and the following frozen install now exits 1, as npm ci does on that fixture.
  • Cost: two walks over the workspace dependency lists and the hoisted tree, only under --frozen-lockfile and only when the differ reported a change.
  • Self-reviewed: implementation and policy reviews raised a trustedDependencies order artifact in an earlier byte-comparison draft (replaced by the value comparison), the pruned-workspace union problem (removals now tolerated with workspaces), old turbo prune dropping patchedDependencies (unrecorded lists not compared), pnpm in-run migration (skipped), vacuous guard tests (now forced through the comparison) and the --production guard using a package that was also a prod dependency (fixed). An earlier revision also exempted never-recorded lists in single-package projects because install: pnpm parity — dedupe, prune, pm licenses, audit fix, add --filter/--catalog, nested overrides, transitive update, and workspace fixes #38333 pins a hand-stripped section as passing there. That was reversed after the postinstall re-run finding above.
  • Suites run locally with the debug build besides the new file: frozen-lockfile-pruned, frozen-lockfile-missing-workspace, bun-lock, lockfile-version-2, lockfile-only, catalogs, nested-overrides, bun-workspaces, bun-workspaces-self-contained, bun-install-registry, bun-install -t frozen, bun-update-transitive, bun-update-lockfile-sync, bun-dedupe, bun-prune, bun-audit, bun-install-patch, bun-patch, bun-lockb, migration/migrate, migration/pnpm-*.
  • The fuzz-ledger rows this covers, reproduced on canary d316760 with a verdaccio fixture before the change: ^1.0.0 -> >=1.0.0, ^1.0.0 -> 1.1.0, patchedDependencies += (when bun.lock already records patches) and -=, trustedDependencies +=, dependencies -> devDependencies, and a member adding a dependency already locked through another member. trustedDependencies = [] and a first trustedDependencies list are covered without workspaces only, for the reasons above.

…ck for a package.json edit

The frozen check compared only the resolved tree (Lockfile::eql), plus the
overrides and catalog flags of the manifest differ. An edit that keeps every
package at its locked version passed bun ci, and the next plain bun install
printed Saved lockfile: a specifier retyped (^1.0.0 -> >=1.0.0 or 1.1.0), a
dependency moved between groups, a workspace adding a dependency another
workspace already locks, trustedDependencies or patchedDependencies edited.

When the differ reports a change and the tree is unchanged, the install now
also compares the manifest sections bun.lock records (each workspace's
dependency names, groups and literals, the trustedDependencies names and
patchedDependencies entries that apply to the tree) between the lockfile as
loaded and as it would be saved, and fails naming the section that differs.
Diffs bun.lock does not record (a trustedDependencies name that is not in the
tree, a workspace lifecycle script, a patch for a version that is not
installed) keep passing, as do a trustedDependencies list bun.lock never
recorded (older turbo prune output) and a bumped workspace version.
…e in workspace projects

bun.lock records one trustedDependencies list, the union over every
workspace's package.json, so a checkout that leaves a workspace out (a Docker
context, turbo prune) declares fewer names than the lockfile lists. Only an
added name is a frozen-lockfile failure there; without workspaces a removal
still is.
…en-lockfile note

Also compare trustedDependencies only against a list bun.lock recorded, in
single-package projects too (a hand-stripped section stays accepted, as the
pruned-checkout tests expect), and fix the ManifestSections doc comment.
…orded, skip lockfiles migrated in the same run

turbo prune dropped patchedDependencies from the pruned bun.lock before
vercel/turborepo#11027 the same way it dropped trustedDependencies before
vercel/turborepo#13740, so a lockfile with no recorded entries is not held
against the package.json that declares them. The 'patchedDependencies added
after bun.lock was written' pruned-checkout test is back to passing; the
'removed' one still fails.

A lockfile migrated from pnpm-lock.yaml in the same run loads as text but is
written even under --frozen-lockfile, so its manifest sections are not
compared (pnpm catalog: importers are recorded with the resolved range).

Tests: make the passing cases force the comparison to run, cover the
unrecorded patchedDependencies case, use a dev-only package for --production.
Docs: say what counts as package.json disagreeing with bun.lock.

Status: ready for review. CI is running on d8238f3, which only adds one test row on top of 4a69a2b. 4a69a2b passed CI with all 181 jobs green (build 117635). The last commit that changes src/ is f09321d (also 181 of 181, build 117611). The commits after it only add a docs sentence (bun ci and bun install --production run the same check) and tests: bun install --production in the section note test, and a bun.lock that git merge joined with a root dependency in a workspace's block. This PR also carries the consolidation with #33632 (closed in its favor) and one follow-up from review: after changeset version-style bumps (a workspace's version plus the ranges its dependents declare on it), a single bun install left the old range literal in bun.lock, so the new check failed bun ci on bun's own output. The differ now treats a retyped range on a workspace-linked dependency as an update, and one install converges. Needs a maintainer decision on the policy points listed in the comments below, then a merge.

Reproduced on canary (main) with a verdaccio fixture: bun install, then each package.json edit, then bun install --frozen-lockfile exits 0, then a plain bun install prints Saved lockfile and rewrites bun.lock. Edits checked: "no-deps": "^1.0.0" retyped as ">=1.0.0", "^1.1.0" (#24223) and "1.1.0", no-deps moved to devDependencies, a direct dependency added or removed while one-dep keeps it in the tree, a second workspace adding no-deps (#22689), a patchedDependencies entry added and removed, a trustedDependencies name added and the list emptied. Also on canary: after bumping lib 1.0.0 to 1.0.1 and app's "lib": "1.0.0" to "1.0.1", one bun install writes bun.lock with "lib": "1.0.0" still under packages/app (a second install fixes it; with ^1.0.0 to ^1.0.1 it is never rewritten). A newly trusted package's postinstall runs again on every frozen install until a plain install records the trust, and a bun.lock that git merge joined with a root dependency in a workspace's block passes the frozen install. USE_SYSTEM_BUN=1 bun test test/cli/install/frozen-lockfile-outdated.test.ts fails 22 of 48 on canary and passes with this branch.

I reviewed this PR and didn't find any bugs. Because it changes the acceptance policy of bun ci / --frozen-lockfile — flipping an existing pruned-lockfile test from pass to fail and encoding several judgment-call exemptions (workspace versions, trusted-name removals in multi-workspace mode, unrecorded trustedDependencies/patchedDependencies lists) — a maintainer should sign off on the policy before this lands.

What was reviewed:

  • ManifestSections::changed_since and manifest_sections() in lockfile.rs — snapshot/diff logic, sort-before-compare, Option-gated comparison of trusted/patched lists, and the multi-workspace removal exemption.
  • install_with_manager.rs — snapshot captured before the package.json overwrite, only for text-format non-migrated lockfiles, and only consulted after Lockfile::eql passed; the extended note: format.
  • The new test file — Verdaccio-backed, describe.concurrent, drains pipes via Promise.all, asserts stderr before exit code, each rewritten-by-install case verifies frozen fails → plain install rewrites → frozen passes.
  • The flipped frozen-lockfile-pruned assertion and the edit-package-json--changed migration snapshot going 0→1.
Extended reasoning...

Overview

This PR tightens bun install --frozen-lockfile / bun ci to fail on package.json edits that keep every package at its locked resolution but would still cause a plain bun install to rewrite bun.lock — retyped-but-equivalent version ranges, dependencies moved between groups, and trustedDependencies/patchedDependencies edits. src/install/lockfile.rs gains a ManifestSections snapshot type (~170 lines) and install_with_manager.rs wires it into the frozen check after Lockfile::eql reports no resolution diffs. A new 374-line test file parametrizes each edit class in both directions (must fail / must still pass), one existing frozen-lockfile-pruned test flips from expecting exit 0 to exit 1, one migration snapshot changes exit code, and the docs gain a paragraph.

Security risks

None identified. The change is read-only comparison logic gated behind --frozen-lockfile, operating on already-parsed lockfile buffers and package.json data. No new parsing of untrusted input, no filesystem writes, no network. The error path already existed; only the message gains a directory component (formatted through bstr::BStr).

Level of scrutiny

High. This is a user-facing behavior change to a command that gates CI pipelines: repos that currently pass bun ci may start failing after upgrading (the PR description itself flags one such case as "worth a release note"). The change encodes several policy exemptions — workspace version bumps accepted, trustedDependencies removals accepted in multi-workspace mode because the lockfile stores a union, trustedDependencies/patchedDependencies not compared when the loaded lockfile never recorded them (for older turbo prune output). Each is well-argued in the description with pnpm/yarn parity and turborepo issue references, but they are product decisions a maintainer should ratify. The PR also inverts an existing test's contract (patchedDependencies removed after bun.lock was written now fails instead of passes) and changes a committed migration snapshot's expected exit code.

Other factors

The implementation reads clean against REVIEW.md conventions: no unwrap() on user-reachable paths, sorted-then-compared vectors avoid order artifacts, the snapshot is captured only when needed (frozen + text format + not migrated + differ reported something), and the extra walk runs only after eql already passed. Tests follow the harness rules — VerdaccioRegistry, bunExe()/bunEnv, concurrent subprocess tests, pipes drained via Promise.all, stderr asserted before exit code, and each failure case round-trips (frozen fails → plain install rewrites the lock → frozen passes) so the assertion is not vacuous. The new test file sitting alongside frozen-lockfile-pruned.test.ts rather than inside it seems reasonable given the existing precedent of separate frozen-lockfile-* files and its ~25-test size. No CODEOWNERS entry covers src/install/. The bug hunt ran to dry_streak with nothing found and nothing ruled out; approval is withheld solely on the size and policy-change grounds, not on any suspected defect.

The automated review found no defects and defers the policy to a maintainer. For whoever signs off, these are the four decisions the diff encodes, each a one-line change in ManifestSections::changed_since (src/install/lockfile.rs) if you want it the other way:

  1. A patchedDependencies entry removed from the root package.json while bun.lock still records it now fails --frozen-lockfile. frozen-lockfile-pruned.test.ts pinned the opposite since install: pnpm parity — dedupe, prune, pm licenses, audit fix, add --filter/--catalog, nested overrides, transitive update, and workspace fixes #38333. Current turbo prune keeps the entries of the packages it keeps, and pnpm fails this case too.
  2. A trustedDependencies or patchedDependencies list that bun.lock never recorded is not compared, so a first-time addition passes until the next install records it. Older turbo prune dropped both sections, and install: pnpm parity — dedupe, prune, pm licenses, audit fix, add --filter/--catalog, nested overrides, transitive update, and workspace fixes #38333's tests pin a stripped trustedDependencies section as passing.
  3. Removing a trustedDependencies name fails only in a project without workspaces. With workspaces the recorded list is the union of every workspace's list, so a partial checkout declares fewer names.
  4. A bumped workspace version passes, although a plain bun install rewrites bun.lock for it.

CI so far: the new and changed install tests pass on every lane that has finished. The red jobs are test-crypto-dh-leak.js and require-cache.test.ts on debian x64-asan and fetch-backpressure.test.ts on windows aarch64, none of which touch src/install.

… one install records it

A range that links the same workspace before and after an edit (`1.0.0` ->
`1.0.1` together with the sibling's version bump, `^1.0.0` -> `^1.0.1`,
`workspace:*` -> `workspace:^`) compared equal in the differ, because
workspace versions compare by path. The package declaring it was not
re-read, and bun.lock kept the old literal: for an exact pin until a second
install, for a caret range for good. With the manifest comparison under
--frozen-lockfile that turned `changeset version && bun install`, commit,
`bun ci` into a failure. The differ now counts a retyped literal on a
workspace-linked dependency as an update.

The docs paragraph says the rule is stricter than npm ci and matches pnpm
and yarn, and that bun.lockb keeps the resolution-only check.

npm ci also rejects a specifier that differs from package-lock.json (the
arborist edit-package-json--changed fixture), so 'only rejects a resolution
change' was wrong.

…atchedDependencies list outside workspace projects

A list bun.lock never recorded was not compared, so that a bun.lock pruned by
an older turbo (which dropped both sections) keeps passing. Only a workspace
project can be pruned. Without workspaces, the first list now fails like any
other edit of it.

This matters beyond lockfile churn for trustedDependencies: while bun.lock
does not record the trust, every frozen install reports the package as newly
trusted and runs its lifecycle scripts again on the installed tree. Only a
plain install can record it, so the frozen one stops and says so.

The single-package case in frozen-lockfile-pruned.test.ts keeps its purpose
(a trustedDependencies-only difference does not drop a peer-held package) with
a name that is not installed instead of a stripped section.

Update to policy point 2 above (a trustedDependencies or patchedDependencies list that bun.lock never recorded), pushed as 1017e53.

New finding: the first trustedDependencies list is not only lockfile churn. While bun.lock does not record the trust, the differ reports the package as newly trusted on every install, so every bun install --frozen-lockfile runs its lifecycle scripts again on the already installed tree, until a plain install records it. Reproduced on canary b52d513 with a postinstall that appends to a file: three frozen installs leave xxx.

The previous head did not catch that shape, because it skipped any list bun.lock never recorded. That skip exists for bun.lock files pruned by a turbo older than vercel/turborepo#13740, and only a workspace project can be pruned. So the skip now applies to workspace projects only:

  • Without workspaces, the first trustedDependencies list or patchedDependencies entry fails the frozen install (note: trustedDependencies in package.json changed since bun.lock was saved). The script then runs once, on the plain install that records the trust. New test: "a newly trusted package's postinstall is not run by every frozen install".
  • With workspaces nothing changes. A first list still passes, and its scripts still re-run on every frozen install, because that shape is indistinguishable from old turbo prune output. Dropping the exemption later is a one-line change in ManifestSections::changed_since.

This adapts one more test from #38333, "single-package project: trustedDependencies stripped from bun.lock does not drop a peer-held package under --frozen-lockfile". It keeps its purpose (a trusted-only difference must not drop the peer-held package) with a trusted name that is not installed in place of the stripped section. If a stripped section in a single-package project has to keep passing, revert the maybe_pruned condition and that test.

The branch also merges current main (the build needs LLVM 23 now).

…corded differently

Two lockfiles bun wrote for an unedited package.json failed the manifest
comparison:

- bun.lock files from before a peerDependenciesMeta-only name was recorded as
  a `*` optional peer lack that row. A fresh `*` optional peer row that
  bun.lock does not list is no longer a difference.
- Migrating a pnpm-lock.yaml records the catalog's range where package.json
  says `catalog:`. A `catalog:` dependency now also matches a recorded
  literal equal to the range its catalog entry stands for. Moving to another
  catalog with the same range is still a difference.

The note for these sections now says that bun.lock does not match the section
instead of saying that package.json changed, which is also true for a
hand-merged or migrated lockfile.

…bun.lock fails --frozen-lockfile

git merge joins two branches' bun.lock without conflict markers when a
workspace's block ends with the same line as the root's, and a new root
dependency lands in the workspace's block. The resolved tree is the same, so
only the manifest comparison notices.
