I'm not sure what your expecting bun i -g to actually do. In normal projects with package.json/bun.lock it installs the packages, but global is only ever per device so should already be installed.

I could possibly see a point of --force support without any other package (to forcefully update globally installed clis), but outside that it should in theory always say no change (thus no point).

Okay I don't understand what I've expected from it
npm i -g installs the current package globally so its bun link?
I think I did need --force
You may close this if you don't understand what should it do as well 😅
