Description of the Change
Update bundled Node to v12.4.0, which matches the version in Electron 6.
Alternate Designs
None. We intend to match the Node version in
apm
to that which the version of Electron we use in Atom is based on.Our Atom is using Electron 6. So we should bundle Node v12.4.0 in
apm
.Benefits
For packages that try to detect the version of Node they are building against during install, this closely approximates the version of Node used in Atom's version of Electron. So if there are any potential bugs in various packages due to non-matching versions of Node/Electron, this should take care of 99% of them, maybe even all of them.
Possible Drawbacks
None expected. This is just a minor version update of Node.
Verification Process
CI and manual testing, to be done soon.
