Importance of Lock Files for Dependency Management

Using lock files in managing dependencies is crucial to ensure the fully resolved set of dependencies used by an application. Lock files provide a clear and reproducible set of dependencies, allowing developers to know exactly what is going into their code. By pinning dependencies to specific versions, lock files help prevent unexpected changes or security vulnerabilities that could arise from dynamically resolving dependencies.
