v5.18.0

  • Hashing in Dependencies can be much cheaper now (could improve performance when many dependencies are used that point to the same module, like many references to React.createElement)
  • Fixes bugs where Dependencies forgot to hash some details about the referenced module
  • The new model elimiates the potential of such bugs are Dependencies have less responsibilities now
