[dependabot]

Bumps deepmerge-ts from 7.1.6 to 8.0.2.

Release notes

Sourced from deepmerge-ts's releases.

v8.0.2

8.0.2 (2026-08-21)

Bug Fixes

• correct node engine requirement to >=16.9.0 (ef54ea6)

v8.0.1

8.0.1 (2026-08-16)

Bug Fixes

• typescript 7 support (#714) (b307b77)

v8.0.0

8.0.0 (2026-08-16)

Breaking Changes

• Deep Map value merging. Map values are now deep-merged by default, matching how records are handled. Nested Maps and plain objects inside a Map are merged recursively rather than the source Map simply replacing the target. The old behaviour can be recreated with deepmergeCustom({ mergeMaps: false }).
• DeepMergeMetaMetaData renamed to DeepMergeMergeInfo. A deprecated alias for the old name is still exported for backwards compatibility, but it will be removed in a future major version. The rename better reflects the structure's expanded role, including hierarchy tracking, in custom merging and the metadata passed to custom merge functions. The MetaDataUpdater callback's metaMeta parameter is now mergeInfo, and the MM generic shorthand is now MI.
• DeepMergeIntoFunctionUtils renamed to DeepMergeIntoUtils. No alias is kept for the old name.
• deepmergeInto no longer leak-mutates the input objects. Previously deepmergeInto would mutate the first object's nested containers (arrays, Maps, Sets, and objects) in place, potentially corrupting the input. It is now fixed.

Features

• Circular reference support. deepmergeCustom and deepmergeIntoCustom now handle circular references, configurable via a new maxDepth option and a new mergeCircularReferences merge-function option. The merge metadata also now tracks the merge hierarchy.
• New fast entrypoints. deepmergeFastUnsafe and deepmergeIntoFastUnsafe are drop-in replacements for deepmerge and deepmergeInto with prototype-pollution interception, circular-reference handling, and metadata tracking removed for maximum throughput. They should only be used with trusted data. Each ships with a *Custom constructor (deepmergeFastUnsafeCustom and deepmergeIntoFastUnsafeCustom) for customisation.

Bug Fixes

• deepmergeInto no longer leak-mutates the input objects. (As described in Breaking Changes.)

Performance

• Much faster type checking. The following numbers are the type-checking cost, comparing this release against v7.1.6 (measured with TypeScript 5.9.3):

  Scenario	Types	Instantiations	Total time
  wide	256k -> 26k (-90%)	6.5M -> 83k (-98.7%)	10.5s -> 0.94s (-91%)
  deep	64k -> 26k (-60%)	438k -> 67k (-85%)	1.82s -> 0.87s (-52%)
  optional	45k -> 27k (-40%)	172k -> 78k (-55%)	1.39s -> 0.89s (-36%)
  unions	40k -> 26k (-36%)	118k -> 69k (-42%)	1.26s -> 0.92s (-27%)
  collections	37k -> 26k (-29%)	95k -> 69k (-28%)	1.22s -> 1.06s (-13%)
  custom	38k -> 26k (-31%)	100k -> 69k (-31%)	1.22s -> 1.02s (-16%)
  into	35k -> 25k (-27%)	76k -> 64k (-15%)	1.20s -> 0.87s (-28%)

• Runtime performance. Compared to v7.1.6, deepmerge-ts v8.0.0 is roughly 40% faster when merging two objects and ~5-10% faster on multi-object merges, while deepmergeInto performs about the same (its leak-mutation fix adds a little clone work). Memory use is markedly lower as well: on the largest benchmark dataset, v7.1.6 runs into Node's default heap limit, whereas the same workload completes with a peak of roughly half a gigabyte.

[dependabot]

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
