-# pnpm v10.3.0+ ships with node-gyp@11.1.0. That version of node-gyp has a bug which prevents
-# node-pty, one of Connect deps, from being built on Windows (https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/issues/3126).
-#
-# To work around this, we install node-gyp@11.0.0 as a dev dep and then tell node-pty through the below
-# config option to use node-gyp from our node_modules rather than the one bundled with pnpm.
-#
-# During pnpm install, the script is executed from a directory such as
-# <repo root>/node_modules/.pnpm/node-pty@1.1.0-beta14/node_modules/node-pty
-# so we escape five directories and then give a path to node-gyp.js.
