npmauth
Run vsts-npm-auth -config .npmrc in all directories containing a .npmrc file. Forces new credentials for the first .npmrc found (useful when multiple directories share the same npm registries), then authenticates the remaining directories without forcing. This is helpful in monorepo setups where multiple packages authenticate against the same Azure Artifacts npm registries.
