### Description
Change your profile information on the registry. Note that this command
depends on the registry implementation, so third-party registries may not
support this interface.

profile, or one or more specific properties. It looks like:
```bash

+-----------------+---------------------------+
| two factor auth | auth-and-writes |

* `npm profile set <property> <value>`: Set the value of a profile
property. You can set the following properties this way: email, fullname,
homepage, freenode, twitter, github
* `npm profile set password`: Change your password. This is interactive,
you'll be prompted for your current password and a new password. You'll
also be prompted for an OTP if you have two-factor authentication
enabled.
* `npm profile enable-2fa [auth-and-writes|auth-only]`: Enables two-factor
authentication. Defaults to `auth-and-writes` mode. Modes are:
* `auth-only`: Require an OTP when logging in or making changes to your
account's authentication. The OTP will be required on both the website
and the command line.
* `auth-and-writes`: Requires an OTP at all the times `auth-only` does,
and also requires one when publishing a module, setting the `latest`
dist-tag, or changing access via `npm access` and `npm owner`.
* `npm profile disable-2fa`: Disables two-factor authentication.
