API

netrc([host])

Return the login and password details of host. Or return false.

If no host, return all the hosts.

netrc.update(host, data)

Updates the netrc with the given data for host. (data usually contains
login and password, but any given props will be written)

If data is empty, the given host will be removed from the file.

NOTE: this method merges data with what is already in place, it will not
affect any other hosts.
