Doug Davies commented on CB-12810:
----------------------------------

I don't like that my original package.json and config.xml get overwritten. I 
manage them myself and have lots of comments in them to detail intricacies. I 
also group things together so that they make logical sense for me. How can I 
get cordova to not touch these files? I tried --nosave on prepare and "cordova 
config set autosave false". 

> keep existing formatting in package.json

>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: cordova-lib
>    Affects Versions: 7.0.0
>            Reporter: Steve Gill
>            Priority: Minor
>              Labels: backlog, cordova-8.0.0, cordova-next
>
> We will write our own indentation in package.json. For commands that shell 
> out to cordova-fetch and therefore npm, we have no control over it (cordova 
> platform/plugin add/rm).
> We could theoretically keep indentaiton for commands where we write to 
> package.json (also platform/plugin add/rm to cordova key & during restore 
> when we sync config.xml & package.json).
> This issue is probably not worth implementing. 
> npm@5 seems like it will respect existing formatting. 
> Previous issue with npm formatting: https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/5694
> npm5 respecting indentation: https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/16244
