Summary
Bumps tar 7.5.11 → 7.5.16 (patch releases). Transitive build-time dependency (via cacache/node-gyp tooling chains). Not used directly in app code.
Risks
LOW. Patch-level updates. tar is not imported anywhere in the codebase; it is a transitive dependency of build/install tooling. Changes are bug fixes: stricter hardlink-preemption protection, fix for pending-links detection regression, and not applying PAX header fields to meta entries. No API changes. CI (test) is green.
Analysis
- grep confirms no direct import of tar.
- 7.5.12–7.5.16 commits are security/robustness fixes around hardlinks and PAX headers, plus a regression fix in pending-links detection.
- Existing test suite passes.
