pnpm 11.28.2 fixes pnpm install skipping every workspace project whose common ancestor is the filesystem root, and stops pnpm run from reinstalling or installing when nothing needs it.

Patch Changes

• pnpm install reported success without installing anything when the workspace projects' common ancestor was the filesystem root, such as / or a drive root like C:\. It now installs these projects #16328.

• verifyDepsBeforeRun no longer reports dependencies as outdated after a filtered install just because pnpm-lock.yaml has a newer modification time. It checks the lockfile against the packages that install put in place. Before, pnpm run reinstalled the whole workspace with lifecycle scripts on, for example after a Docker COPY brought in a lockfile with a newer mtime #16322.

  After a filtered install, verifyDepsBeforeRun now also checks that the install put the selected projects' dependencies in place. A node_modules directory alone no longer counts as proof.

• pnpm run and pnpm exec no longer install a project that has never been installed and has nothing to install. Such a project declares no dependencies, no peer dependencies that autoInstallPeers would fetch, and no install lifecycle scripts. The command now runs without writing node_modules or pnpm-lock.yaml #16313.
