feat: forward globalIgnoreFile option to npm-packlist#487
Merged
Conversation
`DirFetcher` is the entry point for packing a directory spec and calls `npm-packlist` directly. Pull `globalIgnoreFile` off the opts and pass it through to packlist so a user level ignore file (configured by callers such as the npm cli) actually reaches the walker that decides which files end up in the tarball. Includes a test that mocks `npm-packlist` to confirm the option is forwarded, and a complementary test confirming that omitting the option passes `undefined` through. The behavior on the packlist side lands in a separate npm-packlist release; this commit only adds the plumbing on the pacote side.

🤖 I have created a release *beep* *boop* --- ## [22.0.0](v21.5.0...v22.0.0) (2026-06-15) ###⚠️ BREAKING CHANGES * `pacote` now supports node `^22.22.2 || ^24.15.0 || >=26.0.0` * git specs using the `https` or `git+https` protocol now resolve to `git+https` URLs instead of being switched to `git+ssh`. Shortcut specs (e.g. `github:user/repo`, `user/repo`) and `git+ssh`/`git://` specs are unchanged. ### Features * [`09316f5`](09316f5) [#504](#504) bump to new node engine range (@owlstronaut) * [`2ab74b0`](2ab74b0) [#497](#497) strip patchedDependencies from the packed package.json (#497) (@manzoorwanijk) * [`66e7ea7`](66e7ea7) [#487](#487) forward globalIgnoreFile option to npm-packlist (@ljharb) ### Bug Fixes * [`ce804fb`](ce804fb) [#498](#498) avoid ReDoS in addGitSha committish stripping (#498) (@owlstronaut) * [`1f5f131`](1f5f131) [#494](#494) pass --global=false when preparing git dependencies (@owlstronaut) * [`e0af7f6`](e0af7f6) [#486](#486) respect ignoreScripts option for git dependencies (@owlstronaut) * [`12c8c8f`](12c8c8f) [#481](#481) fall back to git clone when tarball response is not a valid archive (@babyhuey) * [`61f065a`](61f065a) [#481](#481) use statusCode instead of constructor name for tarball fallback in git fetcher (@j1mb0-1) * [`6d160c1`](6d160c1) [#434](#434) do not switch to git+ssh for https repository links (#434) (@oldium) ### Dependencies * [`371e8b0`](371e8b0) [#504](#504) `ssri@14.0.0` * [`b68c6c2`](b68c6c2) [#504](#504) `sigstore@5.0.0` * [`57793ab`](57793ab) [#504](#504) `proc-log@7.0.0` * [`33eacc9`](33eacc9) [#504](#504) `npm-registry-fetch@20.0.1` * [`a131916`](a131916) [#504](#504) `npm-pick-manifest@12.0.0` * [`2b03527`](2b03527) [#504](#504) `npm-packlist@11.2.0` * [`5f8ad42`](5f8ad42) [#504](#504) `npm-package-arg@14.0.0` * [`ee3b96d`](ee3b96d) [#504](#504) `cacache@21.0.1` * [`033f655`](033f655) [#504](#504) `@npmcli/run-script@11.0.0` * [`ddcc738`](ddcc738) [#504](#504) `@npmcli/promise-spawn@10.0.0` * [`6a28eb2`](6a28eb2) [#504](#504) `@npmcli/package-json@8.0.0` * [`5879416`](5879416) [#504](#504) `@npmcli/installed-package-contents@5.0.0` * [`41ea727`](41ea727) [#504](#504) `@npmcli/git@8.0.0` ### Chores * [`3fc5fd4`](3fc5fd4) [#504](#504) `@npmcli/eslint-config@7.0.0` (@owlstronaut) * [`7350ab8`](7350ab8) [#504](#504) `hosted-git-info@10.1.1` (@owlstronaut) * [`c7c7d7f`](c7c7d7f) [#504](#504) template-oss-apply (@owlstronaut) * [`e9ac85e`](e9ac85e) [#501](#501) template-oss-apply (@owlstronaut) * [`e184356`](e184356) [#501](#501) `template-oss@5.1.0` (@owlstronaut) * [`644ebb6`](644ebb6) [#479](#479) template-oss-apply (@owlstronaut) * [`ee64bea`](ee64bea) [#479](#479) `@npmcli/template-oss@4.30.0` (@owlstronaut) --- This PR was generated with [Release Please](https://github.com/googleapis/release-please).
