Lock file maintenance deletes package-lock.json and regenerates it from
scratch, and a single npm install pass can produce a lock file that is out
of sync with package.json, so npm ci rejects the branch. Always run the
install command a second time for lock file maintenance, mirroring the
existing double run for remediations, instead of relying on users opting
in to the npmInstallTwice postUpdateOption. Because branch creation and
rebase share the same lock file generation path, this covers both.
* docs: explicitly document `depTypes` each manager supports
A long-standing question we receive is "what `depTypes` can I match
against in my project".
Although the best recommendation we usually have is "check the
`packageFiles with updates" log line (as a very key log line for users),
we can go one step further and try and create a stronger contract.
To do this, I've used Claude Sonnet 4.6 to work through the codebase,
determine areas that a `depType` is set in a manager (statically or
dynamically) and generate a structured, typed, means to document how
they're used.
Through a few iterations of the process, and attempts at human-written
documentation, we've settled on:
- prioritising autogenerated documentation (for humans to read) to note
what `depTypes` are known, and what they are
- `knownDepTypes`, to describe any known, static, `depType`s and their
human-readable meaning
- with the `prettyDepType`, if used
- `supportsDynamicDepTypesNote`, to add a Markdown note to the generated
documentation
While here, we also:
- make sure to note this in the "adding a new package manager"
documentation
- remove any hand-written references to `depTypes` in each manager's
documentation page
- correct the Gleam `depTypes`
- make sure to use the `knownDepTypes`'s `prettyDepType` definition if
we know it, for a given `depType`
The descriptions have been generated by Claude Sonnet, with some
human-written tweaks where appropriate.

* fixup! docs: explicitly document `depTypes` each manager supports
* docs(manager): display `depTypes` documentation if none present
For consistency, and to make it more explicit.
