The `dist-raw` directory contains JS sources that are distributed verbatim, not compiled nor typechecked via TS.

To implement ESM support, we unfortunately must duplicate some of node's built-in functionality that is not
|
||
|
|
exposed via an API. We have copy-pasted the necessary code from https://github.com/nodejs/node/tree/master/lib
|
||
|
|
then modified it to suite our needs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Formatting may be intentionally bad to keep the diff as small as possible, to make it easier to merge
|
||
|
|
upstream changes and understand our modifications. For example, when we need to wrap node's source code
|
||
|
|
in a factory function, we will not indent the function body, to avoid whitespace changes in the diff.
|
||
|

One obvious problem with this approach: the code has been pulled from one version of node, whereas users of ts-node
|
||
|
|
run multiple versions of node.
|
||
|
|
Users running node 12 may see that ts-node behaves like node 14, for example.
