TypeError: URL is not a constructor in replace-info.js

[ewrayjohnson]

This occurs with Nodejs 14.7.0
On line 14 of replace-info.js an attempt is made to construct a new URL(...), however URL is not a constructor.
One fix is to change line 1 to:
const URL = require('url').URL;
Another (possibly better) option to fix is to replace new URL with URL.parse

Or just remove line 1:

cli/lib/utils/replace-info.js

Line 1 in ad8fe71

const URL = require('url')

Here URL refers to the url built-in module rather than the global URL object. That's unfortunate, the url module is not even used in this module. The following code fails because of that:

cli/lib/utils/replace-info.js

Lines 14 to 15 in ad8fe71

	const url = new URL(arg)
	return url.password === '' ? arg : arg.replace(url.password, '***')

The WHATWG URL object is globally available on Node.js since Node.js 10.0.0, although you still can use require('url').URL it is not a requirement and refers to the same object.

Thank you for the catch, we'll make the proper changes considering we still have to support Node 6 on npm v6. The fix will be shipped next week.
