doesn't this mean that we might have outdated internal code in the cache?

this is the cache key to cache the node_modules folder. So all the workspace packages should not be there at all, so the version should not matter (I think? at least 😅 )

👍 yeah I just wasn't sure how these workspace packages are handled within node modules

Hmm, it's a good question 🤔 there are only some symlinks in there, but these should not change I believe between versions. IMHO we can try it and if there are problems we can revisit this particular check - but I'd expect it to be OK. We do capture added internal dependencies, which should be fine I think/hope 😅

Ensure it only changes if actual dependencies change.
Previously, we would invalidate the dependency cache every time a package.json of the workspace changed in any way. This is defensive, but it also means that we also invalidate if one of these things happen:
This change updates this to calculate the hash with a slightly more sophisticated approach, which should hopefully ensure we only actually bust the cache when a dependency actually changes. This should lead to the dependency cache being re-used much more, because only rarely is an actual dependency changed.
