Use latest version of yarn on Travis #355
Conversation
The only remaining error with oao + recent yarn turned out to be due to OOM (guigrpa/oao#51), which can be solved by switching to Travis' fully virtualised infra, which has more RAM. The `--frozen-lockfile` parameter has also been moved to `.travis.yml` so that the lockfiles are still updated when working making changes locally.

That changes the meaning to the opposite of the what it's intending to say.
To explain in another way - Travis has two trusty based stacks:
- container (
sudo: false): no-sudo, less RAM - fully virtualised (
sudo: required): has sudo, more RAM, few other differences
Much of the time people use the latter because of the need to use sudo commands rather than because of the difference in machine specifications, which is why Travis use the sudo: {false,required} setting to control which environment is used.
However in this case, the need for sudo commands is not why we're setting sudo: required, it's because we want the higher spec fully virtualised environment.
I'm open to suggestions to another way of wording that makes that clearer?

No no, I was just confused as to why travis configures it this way. Proceed. 😄

The
--frozen-lockfileparameter has also been moved to.travis.ymlso that the lockfiles are still updated when working making changes locally.Being on latest yarn makes it a lot easier to experiment with switching to yarn workspaces and/or lerna.
