Use latest major version
<p>In my JavaScript applications I may be declaring a few dozen dependencies in my <code>package.json</code> file.</p>

<p>It would take a while to go through each one of those dependencies and see which version they are on.</p>

<p>I just want to say: use the latest major version, but not the bleeding edge.</p>

<p>As an example, with a tool like Git I don't usually care about taking changes at the patch-level but if a new major release comes out I will want it.</p>

<p>Is there a similar concept when specifying the version of a npm module?</p>
