pnpm 11.7 introduces a frozenStore setting for installing against read-only package stores (useful for Nix and containerized environments), batch publishing via pnpm publish –recursive –batch, and scope-specific authentication tokens that allow different credentials for packages sharing the same registry URL. The release delegates full dependency resolution to pacquet (the Rust implementation) for better performance, rejects malicious lockfile aliases, and ships bug fixes for Windows compatibility, deterministic lockfile output, and lifecycle script handling.
