@glensc

I'm sorry for the confusion, it's a feature request.

I'm using prepare script in package.json with yarn-deduplicate --strategy fewer, and the result could sometimes be unstable, and I have to run yarn install several times to get a stable yarn.lock file.

What do you mean by "unstable"?

I have to run yarn install several times

That sounds like a bug. It is expected you have to run yarn install once after yarn-deduplicate to prune orphan packages (can't be done safely with an external tool, see this issue). I'll make it explicit in the docs.

However, if you need to run yarn install more than once, that's very unexpected. Could you provide more details?

[JounQin]

I think that's because I'm using fewer strategy.
I'm on a phone, so I can't explain in details.
For short, different dependencies a maybe result different dependencies b, with first run a(or b) get stable versions, but the another one could be deduplicated again, so a second run is needed.
