[BUG] init.author.name deprecation warning does not stop

[sourabhv]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

This issue exists in the latest npm version

• I am using the latest npm

Current Behavior

$ cat ~/.npmrc
init-author-name=<name>
init-author-email=<email>
init-author-url=<url>

$ npm i 
npm WARN config init.author.name Use `--init-author-name` instead.

The init.author.name warning is still there

Expected Behavior

Warning init.author.name should stop like other 2.

Steps To Reproduce

1. In this environment...
   Mac OS Monterey on Macbook Pro 16 2021
   Node v18.0.0 installed via brew
   NPM v8.8.0

2. With this config...

   init-author-name="Foo bar"
   init-author-email=foo.bad@gmail.com
   init-author-url=https://github.com/foobar

3. Run
   npm i

4. See error:
   npm WARN config init.author.name Use --init-author-name instead.

Environment

• npm:
• Node.js:
• OS Name:
• System Model Name:
• npm config:

Please fill out this issue completely. Of particular importance is the output from npm config ls as it may give us clues as to what is happening here.

This might sound weird, but I removed the brew version and installed from nvm and it works fine now. Closing, not sure why it was happening.

Hi, I use VSCode and edit the lines as the warning say:

code /home/MYUSER/.npmrc

I replace line 14:
init-author-email=<email>
or
init.author.email=<email>

instead:
--init-author-email=<email>

and works fine.

Hola, uso VSCode y edito las líneas como dice la advertencia:

code /home/MYUSER/.npmrc

Reemplazo la línea 14: init-author-email=<email> o init.author.email=<email>

en cambio: --init-author-email=<email>

y funciona bien

A mí también me funciono / it worked for me too
