-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.P
-Used to add, list, or clean the npm cache folder\.
-.RS 0
-.IP \(bu 2
-add:
-Add the specified package to the local cache\. This command is primarily
-intended to be used internally by npm, but it can provide a way to
-add data to the local installation cache explicitly\.
-.IP \(bu 2
-clean:
-Delete all data out of the cache folder\.
-.IP \(bu 2
-verify:
-Verify the contents of the cache folder, garbage collecting any unneeded data,
-and verifying the integrity of the cache index and all cached data\.

-.RE
-.SH DETAILS
-.P
-npm stores cache data in an opaque directory within the configured \fBcache\fP,
-named \fB_cacache\fP\|\. This directory is a \fBcacache\fP\-based content\-addressable cache
-that stores all http request data as well as other package\-related data\. This
-directory is primarily accessed through \fBpacote\fP, the library responsible for
-all package fetching as of npm@5\.
-.P
-All data that passes through the cache is fully verified for integrity on both
-insertion and extraction\. Cache corruption will either trigger an error, or
-signal to \fBpacote\fP that the data must be refetched, which it will do
-automatically\. For this reason, it should never be necessary to clear the cache
-for any reason other than reclaiming disk space, thus why \fBclean\fP now requires
-\fB\-\-force\fP to run\.
-.P
-There is currently no method exposed through npm to inspect or directly manage
-the contents of this cache\. In order to access it, \fBcacache\fP must be used
-directly\.
-.P
-npm will not remove data by itself: the cache will grow as new packages are
-installed\.
-.SH A NOTE ABOUT THE CACHE'S DESIGN
-.P
-The npm cache is strictly a cache: it should not be relied upon as a persistent
-and reliable data store for package data\. npm makes no guarantee that a
-previously\-cached piece of data will be available later, and will automatically
-delete corrupted contents\. The primary guarantee that the cache makes is that,
-if it does return data, that data will be exactly the data that was inserted\.
-.P
-To run an offline verification of existing cache contents, use \fBnpm cache
-verify\fP\|\.
-.SH CONFIGURATION
-.SS cache
-.P
-Default: \fB~/\.npm\fP on Posix, or \fB%AppData%/npm\-cache\fP on Windows\.
-.P
-The root cache folder\.
