It is time for the regularly scheduled PouchDB release, this month has a nice set of improvements, and we even managed to remove a little (3KB) around the edges.
Coverage
We are now very happy to be hitting 100% coverage on our tests. This currently only covers Node.js and excludes some cases that are difficult to test but it does give us confidence that our shared code is very well tested and we can ensure new code that is merged has the same level of testing.
GreenKeeper
We have had issues in the past with how to manage npm dependencies. Version ranges can lead to other people breaking PouchDB with their releases, and strict versions lead to us using stagnant packages and not being aware of upcoming breakages. During this month, the hood.ie team released GreenKeeper which gives us best of both worlds, stable versions that are always kept up to date!
