It literally just removes a line from the package.json file of one of the sub-dependencies: https://github.com/babel/babel/pull/5484

It's crazy to me that a package that is downloaded from npm over 4 million times a month gets so little scrutiny that nobody but me noticed a 5MB dependency on all of lodash that wasn't even being used.
