echo "//registry.npmjs.org/:_authToken=$NPM_TOKEN" >> ~/.npmrc

Flow

Feature branch

Publish only versions with a pre-release section containing rc string
Unless the --no-sha flag was passed, branch versions get a suffix that matches the commit ID, so you can re install the same tag and get updates
Tags are named after the branch name

"master" branch

Only publish clean semver versions, no pre-release
Publish versions to tag "latest" (or publishConfig.tag from package.json)

* using latest-branch option will switch its behaviour with master

"latest" branch

Same as master, but will ignore publishConfig.tag setting.Use this if your master branch points to "next" through publishConfig.tag
