This change updates the
yarn install
step to use the--prefer-offline
argument. This chaneg avoids reinstallingalready-present packages when the local cache has them. Yarn's
default behavior is to attempt to install packages from the network before
falling back to the local cache, which can be unnecessarily time-consuming.
We've been using this change in our buildpack fork for months and it's
improved our build times (we think?) and have not experienced any issues.
