Manage package owners

    npm owner ls [<@scope>/]<pkg>

    aliases: author

###
Description

Manage ownership of published packages.

- ls: List all the users who have access to modify a package and push new versions. Handy when you need to know who to bug for help.
- add: Add a new user as a maintainer of a package. This user is enabled to modify metadata, publish new versions, and add other owners.
- rm: Remove a user from the package owner list. This immediately revokes their privileges.

Note that there is only one level of access. Either you can modify a package, or you can't. Future versions may contain more fine-grained access levels, but that is not implemented at this time.

If you have two-factor authentication enabled with `auth-and-writes` then you'll need to include an otp on the command line when changing ownership with `--otp`.
