Milestone
Description
Current Behavior:
I can't for the life of me find something that lets me let you know about docs problems, as the official list of options has nothing relating to docs issues (only a way to open the docs site), so I'm filing this as an npm bug instead: running npm install
generates a package-lock.json
file not just in the project dir, but also in the ./node_modules/
dir.
The docs don't mention (1) that it'll do this, (2) what the purpose of this file is, and (3) why and how it's different (because it's about half the size as the regular package-lock.json file).
Expected Behavior:
No package-lock.json
gets written to ./node_modules/
Steps To Reproduce:
Run npm install
