-This directory and the files immediately inside it are automatically generated

-directory (npm-shrinkwrap.json, .gitignore, and this README) to source control
-so that others run the same versions of sub-dependencies.

-You should NOT check in the node_modules directory that Meteor automatically
-creates; if you are using git, the .gitignore file tells git to ignore it.
