11   Synopsis
12         npm explore <pkg> [ -- <command>]
13
14   Description
15       Spawn a subshell in the directory of the installed package specified.
16
17       If a command is specified, then it is run in the subshell,  which  then
18       immediately terminates.
19
20       This  is  particularly  handy  in  the  case  of  git submodules in the
21       node_modules folder:
22
23         npm explore some-dependency -- git pull origin master
24
25       Note that the package is not automatically rebuilt  afterwards,  so  be
26       sure to use npm rebuild <pkg> if you make any changes.
