postinstall command put in package.json , it executes shell script called postinstall to do backup as original package.json gets updated by npm audit fix --force and user may want to restore his original package.json . as project is independent of versioning from github. pl ignore my earlier patch - hkwathome-patch-1 , as that gave error and not working. this is tested with same modification to create-react-app new sample project, however react team can review the need to echo and take backup of package.json file postinstall.sh needs to be put in scripts folder in the project

postinstall command is added in package.json to excute scripts/postinstall.sh , it executes shell script called postinstall.sh to do backup as original package.json as npm audit fix --force updates the user written package.json and there is no backup of package.json currently done , Thus original package.json gets lost , unless the Project is git maintained , and npm audit fix --force can be reversed by developer , and user may want to restore his original package.json .
this creates a backup of original package.json at the time of "npm install" itself , this is tested with same modification to create-react-app new sample project, however react team can review the need to echo and take backup of package.json file postinstall.sh needs to be put in scripts folder in the project
