+# YARN_NETWORK_CONCURRENCY=1 serialises Yarn's fetch step. The git-sourced
+# @replit/codemirror-* deps are prepared with Yarn Classic, which pulls *all*
+# esbuild platform binaries into the one shared /usr/local/share/.cache/yarn
+# folder; preparing several of them in parallel races and corrupts that cache
+# (EEXIST / missing .yarn-tarball.tgz). Serialising the fetch removes the race.
