I recently had a problem with a package that doesn't have its npm releases tagged in git. It surprised me how hard it was to figure out which git revisions corresponded to specific npm releases. I had tracked down the npm version of the package that introduced the bug I was trying to fix, but without getting in and doing some real diffing, I couldn't figure out which commit introduced the bug.
At the time, I'd never added anything to npm, but since then, I have. It dawns on me that npm versions aren't tied to git revisions at all!
