netrc's Issues

Git

may be a bug.

I use node 0.10.5 with windows 7 .

throw new TypeError('Arguments to path.join must be strings');

the errror is netrc lib index.js file 15num

var file = file || join(process.env.HOME, ".netrc");

fixed .

if (process.platform == 'win32') {
    process.env.HOME = process.env.HOMEPATH;
}

Comments parsing

If there's a comment in a password for example, this shouldn't be parsed:

machine github.com
  login x
  password a#b

See https://hackage.haskell.org/package/netrc-0.2.0.0/docs/Network-NetRc.html.

I think the fix here would be to strip comments as part of the main parsing process, and then not stripping comments when within a "machine" declaration.
