Currently, the version of a release is determined by the git tag.
This PR changes release script to determine the release version from the
`version` property in the root `package.json`.
Release docs have also been updated.
npm 7.5.6 contains several fixes that allow it to work successfully with the Angular CLI.
The minimum npm engine value is now set to support npm versions greater than 7.5.6 (npm 6 support remains unchanged).
A warning will be shown to users with npm 7 versions less than 7.5.6 when used with the new, add, or update commands.
This change provides an improved performance baseline as well as access to newer Node.js APIs and Javascript language features which the Angular CLI will now be able to leverage.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Node.js version 10 will become EOL on 2021-04-30.
Angular CLI 12 will require Node.js 12.13+ or 14.15+. Node.js 12.13 and 14.15 are the first LTS releases for their respective majors.
This change will display an error message if using npm 7 (or versions earlier than 6). This is a temporarily change while npm 7 usability concerns are addressed.
Currently, we can't publish v10 because the `--match` pattern in describe can't match the tag `v10.0.0`. The new glob has the following semantics:
```
v[0-9]*.[0-9]*.[0-9]*
```
Couldn't make it stricter because didn't find an easy way to enable extglobs for git for everyone.
Yarn displays a warning due to an unknown engine value of `pnpm`. Until this is corrected upstream, the value can be temporarily removed to eliminate the multiple, but otherwise harmless, warnings shown to users upon package install.
Version 10.13.0 was the first version of 10.x that was considered LTS. This also provides an improved performance baseline as well as access to newer Node.js APIs and Javascript language features which the Angular CLI will now be able to leverage.
This was dropped because we used to have postinstall scripts that
we did not want to use on npm. We don't anymore, so there's no
use in removing those scripts.
This should make it easier to manage and diff. This takes 2 things into account:
1. we have either stable or experimental versions and each are kept in monorepo.
2. we dont keep hash and update only changed packages.
This commit also removed the hash to make sure this does not happen.
