Clean up readme structure a bit to help with readability. fix
instructions which could lead to a sourcing loop if misinterpreted.
guidance should direct macos users to simply copy the source snippet
manually into their desired profile file.
Resolve#2123
Adds the following information to the "Migrating global packages while installing" section:
- notification that the npm package is explicitly not updated when using the --reinstall-packages-from flag
- information about the --latest-npm flag
- recovery instructions if a user has already updated node with an incompatible npm version
- Operating system and version: Mac OS X Mojave
- What happened? $NVM_DIR was set to nvm
- What did you expect to happen? $NVM_DIR should be set to .nvm
I added the following line from the README to my .zshrc:
```
export NVM_DIR="${XDG_CONFIG_HOME/:-$HOME/.}nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm
```
I couldn't figure out why nvm wasn't loading, until I realized that
`echo NVM_DIR="${XDG_CONFIG_HOME/:-$HOME/.}nvm"` outputs `NVM_DIR=nvm`.
Changing the line to `export NVM_DIR="${XDG_CONFIG_HOME/:-$HOME/}.nvm"` fixed the problem. This outputs `NVM_DIR=.nvm` as expected. I tested this and the same behavior holds true in Bash as well.
It was trying to read ./.nvmrc if you cd'ed into a subdirectory of the directory that has .nvmrc, which would give print `-bash: ./.nvmrc: No such file or directory` to stderr and potentially not doing the `nvm install`.
I had to dig into #2410 to learn about the `PROFILE=/dev/null` technique to install without appending to my shell config. Figured this note would be good to add in the main installation docs.
Also added a note on how to do this as a one-liner which was not obvious for me.
Fixes#2860.
This fixes these two linting errors:
- fqcn-builtins: Use FQCN for builtin actions.
- name: All names should start with an uppercase letter. (name[casing])
