Synopsis

<!-- AUTOGENERATED USAGE DESCRIPTIONS -->

Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.

Description

Spawn a subshell in the directory of the installed package specified.

If a command is specified, then it is run in the subshell, which then
immediately terminates.

This is particularly handy in the case of git submodules in the
node_modules
folder:

npm explore some-dependency -- git pull origin master

Note that the package is not automatically rebuilt afterwards, so be
sure to use npm rebuild <pkg> if you make any changes.
