 ===== Notes =====
+==== Composer Merge Plugin ====
+Starting with VuFind 6.1, VuFind uses the [[https://github.com/wikimedia/composer-merge-plugin|Wikimedia Composer Merge Plugin]] to help developers add dependencies to local VuFind instances more easily. If you want to add a new dependency to a local instance of VuFind without having to override the existing composer.json/composer.lock (which can cause merge conflicts in the future), you can instead create a composer.local.json (based on the provided [[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind/blob/master/composer.local.json.dist|composer.local.json.dist]] example) and then run "composer update" to add everything. See [[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind/pull/1425|pull request #1425]] for more details.
