SYNOPSIS
bun pm pack [--dry-run] [--destination dir] [--filename name] [--ignore-scripts] [--gzip-level 0-9] [--quiet]
DESCRIPTION
bun pm pack creates a compressed .tgz archive containing all files that would be published to npm, following the same inclusion and exclusion rules as npm pack. This is useful for inspecting what will be published before running bun publish, testing local packages, or sharing packages without a registry.
The command respects the files field in package.json, .npmignore, and .gitignore when determining which files to include.
