What?
Composer 1.10.0 introduced a
lock
config option, which, when set tofalse
will prevent acomposer.lock
file from being created and will ignore it when one exists.This is a useful option for packages like Gutenberg where the
lock
file has no meaning.It also makes life more straight-forward for contributors as they don't have to remember that for this repo they should use
composer update
instead ofcomposer install
. Both will now work the same.Refs:
