In a changelog message I would say that the lodash dependency has been removed from the package. It's something that's visible and useful for the package consumer, unlike the purely internal merge refactor.

Good call. Expanded the CHANGELOG message in 291f545

What?
This PR removes Lodash's
_.merge()from thebabel-plugin-makepotpackage. It's the last usage, so we're also deprecating that method. Finally, we're removing a stray_.isEmpty()which is straightforward enough to remove.Why?
Lodash is known to unnecessarily inflate the bundle size of packages, and in most cases, it can be replaced with native language functionality. See these for more information and rationale:
@wordpress/api-fetchpackage haslodashas a dependency #39495How?
We're using
deepmergeinstead of_.merge(), which has been properly used as a substitute in other places of the codebase where we need deep merging of objects. We're using an additional bool check andObject.values().lengthto replace theisEmpty()over an object.Testing Instructions
babel-plugin-makepotin its build pipeline. If you don't have one, you could start with the one mentioned at babel-plugin-makepot: "translations is not iterable" #43793node_modules, similar to how we did in Makepot: Fix translations object handling #43797.cc @jeremyfelt who has historically been capable to test changes on this package - I'd really appreciate a review on this one. 🙌
