Adding package-lock.json to the .gitignore file

[iaig]

Hi everyone!

I use Nx in production with Azure. Everything was working fine until I committed a change in the .gitignore file to ignore the package-lock.json file, and suddenly all builds (locally and on Azure) started failing with the following error:

Error: The externalDependency 'vite' for 'business:build' could not be found

Everything was back to normal when I reverted the change and allowed package-lock.json.

Are there any explanations for this?

Thanks.
