Ensure that when you `npm publish`, the "latest" tag is only set for the truly latest version.
## Usage
Add "safe-publish-latest" to your `package.json`'s "prepublish" script, and install `in-publish`.
It will only activate during an actual `npm publish` - it will silently do nothing during installs, and will error when run directly.
Example `package.json` excerpt with no other prepublish commands:
```json
{
"scripts": {
"prepublishOnly": "safe-publish-latest",
"prepublish": "not-in-publish || npm run prepublishOnly"
}
}
```
Example `package.json` excerpt with another prepublish command:
```json
{
"scripts": {
"prepublishOnly": "safe-publish-latest && npm run build",
"prepublish": "not-in-publish || npm run prepublishOnly"
}
}
```
## Tests
Simply clone the repo, `npm install`, and run `npm test`
