+/**
+ * This script is in charge of cleaning the `shrinkwrap` file.
+ *
+ * `npm shrinkwrap` has a bug where it will add optional dependencies
+ * to `npm-shrinkwrap.json`, therefore causing errors if these optional
+ * dependendencies are platform dependent and you then try to build
+ * the project in another platform.
+ *
+ * As a workaround, we keep a list of platform dependent dependencies in
+ * the `platformSpecificDependencies` property of `package.json`,
+ * and manually remove them from `npm-shrinkwrap.json` if they exist.
+ *
+ * See: https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/2679
