Pull request #526 updated the behavior of vendor/constants.js without
changing any source files or the bin/jsx-internal script, so files that
should have been rebuilt (like utils/__tests__/ImmutableObject-test.js)
were not automatically rebuilt (unless you knew to do `grunt clean` or
`rm -rf .module-cache` manually).
This commit allows us to bump a version number when we know the transform
toolchain has been altered in a way that will not be visible to
commoner/jsx.
With this convention, if we reset to an older revision (e.g. during a git
bisect) and the appropriate cached module files are still in the
.module-cache/, they can be used without rebuilding. That's why I prefer
this approach to just deleting the .module-cache/.

benjamn/commoner#44 fixed commoner to work on Windows when module path relativization isn't used; with this, the `jsx` binary should work properly on Windows (though `jsx-internal` still won't).
Fixes#316, fixes#391, fixes#567.
Most notably, this new style of transformation gives us access to
this.parent.node, which allows us to avoid replacing identifiers that are
not actually free variables, such as member expression properties.
Closes#496.
We will continue using `bin/jsx-internal`, well, internally.
Note that this version no longer respects `@providesModule`, and it
doesn't do anything special with constants like `__DEV__`, so we can no
longer get to claim that `bin/jsx` can be used to build the core.
I'm happy about this, personally, because it demonstrates the flexibility
of Commoner.
A silent upgrade from graceful-fs v1.2.2 to v1.2.3 (a dependency for both
Commoner and Populist) broke the build process, even though tests were
still passing. The 2.0.0 version fixes whatever was broken, though I won't
pretend to know exactly what the root cause was.
There are other changes I'm sure but the most important is that module
sorting results in deterministic builds.
The biggest win here comes for releases. Previously we had to jump
through hoops to make sure the files we put in bower were the same files
we put on the CDN, were the same files packaged in the Ruby gem, were
the same files we packaged into a zip file, were the same file we used
when create PRs to CDNJS. Rebuilding docs also resulted in conflicting
versions so we had to be careful when committing. This takes away all of
that pain. We can build from the same revision and get the same files.
This behavior is new in Commoner v0.8.3, following the incorporation of
@jeffreylin's `DirWatcher` implementation:
https://github.com/jeffreylin/jsx_transformer_fun/blob/master/dirWatcher.js
Watching directories instead of files reduces the total number of open
files, and copes better with editors that save files by deleting and then
immediately recreating them.
Closes#60.
Closes#71.
If you are using bin/jsx independently, you may need to pass
--follow-requires to it if you rely on its dependency scanning.
Dependency scanning is still a good idea, but it's difficult to make it
work perfectly for everyone the first time they try bin/jsx.
Closes#131.
It turns out that (at least for local development) npm has a long
standing bug where it doesn't recognize changing dependencies stored as
git urls (see https://github.com/isaacs/npm/issues/1727). Luckily npm
understand tarballs and GitHub provides tarballs for every commit, so
the workaround is easy, though unfortunate.
