### REFACTORING OUT npm-REGISTRY-CLIENT

Today is an auspicious day! This release marks the end of a massive internal
refactor to npm that means we finally got rid of the legacy
[`npm-registry-client`](https://npm.im/npm-registry-client) in favor of the
shiny, new, `window.fetch`-like
[`npm-registry-fetch`](https://npm.im/npm-registry-fetch).

Now, the installer had already done most of this work with the release of
`npm@5`, but it turns out _every other command_ still used the legacy client.
This release updates all of those commands to use the new client, and while
we're at it, adds a few extra goodies:

* All OTP-requiring commands will now **prompt**. `--otp` is no longer required for `dist-tag`, `access`, et al.
* We're starting to integrate a new config system which will eventually get extracted into a standalone package.
* We now use [`libnpm`](https://npm.im/libnpm) for the API functionality of a lot of our commands! That means you can install a library if you want to write your own tooling around them.
* There's now an `npm org` command for managing users in your org.
* [`pacote`](https://npm.im/pacote) now consumes npm-style configurations, instead of its own naming for various config vars. This will make it easier to load npm configs using `libnpm.config` and hand them directly to `pacote`.

There's too many commits to list all of them here, so check out the PR if you're
curious about details:

### DEPENDENCY UPDATES

A very special dependency update event! Since the [release of
`node-gyp@3.8.0`](https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp/pull/1521), an awkward
version conflict that was preventing `request` from begin flattened was
resolved. This means two things:

1. We've cut down the npm tarball size by another 200kb, to 4.6MB
2. `npm audit` now shows no vulnerabilities for npm itself!

Thanks, [@rvagg](https://github.com/rvagg)!

### NEW FEATURES

* [`ad0dd226f`](https://github.com/npm/cli/commit/ad0dd226fb97a33dcf41787ae7ff282803fb66f2)
  [npm/cli#26](https://github.com/npm/cli/pull/26)
  `npm version` now supports a `--preid` option to specify the preid for
  prereleases. For example, `npm version premajor --preid rc` will tag a version
  like `2.0.0-rc.0`.

  [npm/cli#24](https://github.com/npm/cli/pull/24)
  Use the default OTP explanation everywhere except when the context is
  "OTP-aware" (like when setting double-authentication). This improves the
  overall CLI messaging when prompting for an OTP code.

  `wrappy` was previously added to dependencies in order to flatten it, but we
  no longer do legacy-style for npm itself, so it has been removed from
  `package.json`.

## v6.2.0 (2018-07-13):

In case you missed it, [we
moved!](https://blog.npmjs.org/post/175587538995/announcing-npmcommunity). We
look forward to seeing future PRs landing in
[npm/cli](https://github.com/npm/cli) in the future, and we'll be chatting with
you all in [npm.community](https://npm.community). Go check it out!

This final release of `npm@6.2.0` includes a couple of features that weren't
quite ready on time but that we'd still like to include. Enjoy!

### FEATURES

* [`244b18380`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/244b18380ee55950b13c293722771130dbad70de)
  [#20554](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/20554)
  Add support for tab-separated output for `npm audit` data with the
  `--parseable` flag.
  ([@luislobo](https://github.com/luislobo))
* [`7984206e2`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/7984206e2f41b8d8361229cde88d68f0c96ed0b8)
  [#12697](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/12697)
  Add new `sign-git-commit` config to control whether the git commit itself gets
  signed, or just the tag (which is the default).
  ([@tribou](https://github.com/tribou))

### FIXES

* [`4c32413a5`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/4c32413a5b42e18a34afb078cf00eed60f08e4ff)
  [#19418](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/19418)
  Do not use `SET` to fetch the env in git-bash or Cygwin.

  `request@2.81.0`: Downgraded to allow better deduplication. This does
  introduce a bunch of `hoek`-related audit reports, but they don't affect npm
  itself so we consider it safe. We'll upgrade `request` again once `node-gyp`
  unpins it.
  ([@simov](https://github.com/simov))
* [`2ac48f863`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/2ac48f863f90166b2bbf2021ed4cc04343d2503c)

  `cli-table3@0.5.0`: `cli-table2` is unmaintained and required `lodash`. With
  this dependency bump, we've removed `lodash` from our tree, which cut back
  tarball size by another 300kb.
  ([@Turbo87](https://github.com/Turbo87))

### DEPENDENCY SHUFFLE!

We did some reshuffling and moving around of npm's own dependencies. This
significantly reduces the total bundle size of the npm pack, from 8MB to 4.8MB
for the distributed tarball! We also moved around what we actually commit to the
repo as far as devDeps go.

## v6.1.0 (2018-05-17):

### FIX WRITE AFTER END ERROR

First introduced in 5.8.0, this finally puts to bed errors where you would
occasionally see `Error: write after end at MiniPass.write`.

* [`171f3182f`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/171f3182f32686f2f94ea7d4b08035427e0b826e)
  [node-tar#180](https://github.com/npm/node-tar/issues/180)
  [npm.community#35](https://npm.community/t/write-after-end-when-installing-packages-with-5-8-and-later/35)
  `pacote@8.1.5`: Fix write-after-end errors.
  ([@zkat](https://github.com/zkat))

### DETECT CHANGES IN GIT SPECIFIERS

* [`0e1726c03`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/0e1726c0350a02d5a60f5fddb1e69c247538625e)
  We can now determine if the commitid of a git dependency in the lockfile is derived
  from the specifier in the package.json and if it isn't we now trigger an update for it.
  ([@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))

### OTHER BUGS

* [`442d2484f`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/442d2484f686e3a371b07f8473a17708f84d9603)

  [`631d30a34`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/631d30a340f5805aed6e83f47a577ca4125599b2)
  When requesting the update of a direct dependency that was also a
  transitive dependency to a version incompatible with the transitive
  requirement and you had a lock-file but did not have a `node_modules`
  folder then npm would fail to provide a new copy of the transitive
  dependency, resulting in an invalid lock-file that could not self heal.
  ([@iarna](https://github.com/iarna))
* [`be5dd0f49`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/be5dd0f496ec1485b1ea3094c479dfc17bd50d82)
  [#20715](https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/20715)
  Cleanup output of `npm ci` summary report.

* [`98ffe4adb`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/98ffe4adb55a6f4459271856de2e27e95ee63375)
  Node.js now has a test that scans for things that look like conflict
  markers in source code.  This was triggering false positives on a fixture in a test
  of npm's ability to heal lockfiles with conflicts in them.

## v6.1.0-next.0 (2018-05-17):

Look at that! A feature bump! `npm@6` was super-exciting not just because it
used a bigger number than ever before, but also because it included a super
shiny new command: `npm audit`. Well, we've kept working on it since then and
have some really nice improvements for it. You can expect more of them, and the
occasional fix, in the next few releases as more users start playing with it and
we get more feedback about what y'all would like to see from something like
this.

I, for one, have started running it (and the new subcommand...) in all my
projects, and it's one of those things that I don't know how I ever functioned
-without- it! This will make a world of difference to so many people as far as
making the npm ecosystem a higher-quality, safer commons for all of us.

This is also a good time to remind y'all that we have a new [RFCs
repository](https://github.com/npm/rfcs), along with a new process for them.
This repo is open to anyone's RFCs, and has already received some great ideas
about where we can take the CLI (and, to a certain extent, the registry). It's a
great place to get feedback, and completely replaces feature requests in the
main repo, so we won't be accepting feature requests there at all anymore. Check
it out if you have something you'd like to suggest, or if you want to keep track
of what the future might look like!

### NEW FEATURE: `npm audit fix`

This is the biggie with this release! `npm audit fix` does exactly what it says
on the tin. It takes all the actionable reports from your `npm audit` and runs
the installs automatically for you, so you don't have to tr
