title: how to restrict indentation while using jq filters on json file
body: <p>My input JSON file is:</p>
  <pre><code>{
      &quot;name&quot;: &quot;abc&quot;,
      &quot;private&quot;: true,
      &quot;version&quot;: &quot;1.0.0&quot;,
      &quot;description&quot;: &quot;UI&quot;,
      &quot;dependencies&quot;: {
          &quot;xyz&quot;: &quot;9.11&quot;,
          &quot;abc&quot;: &quot;5.0.0&quot;
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  <p>When I use <code>jq .name=xyz</code>, the output will be printed as:</p>
  <pre><code>{
    &quot;name&quot;: &quot;xyz&quot;,
    &quot;private&quot;: true,
    &quot;version&quot;: &quot;1.0.0&quot;,
    &quot;description&quot;: &quot;UI&quot;,
    &quot;dependencies&quot;: {
      &quot;xyz&quot;: &quot;9.11&quot;,
      &quot;abc&quot;: &quot;5.0.0&quot;
    }
  }
  </code></pre>
  <p>Though my input file as proper indentation, after running the <code>jq</code> command the indentation is different.<br />
  How can I restrict the indentation?</p>
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
