I am trying to publish/update this repository of mine from alpha to the first stable release.

I tried with the -dd option, which outputs:

npm publish --dd
npm info it worked if it ends with ok
npm verb cli [ 'node', '/usr/bin/npm', 'publish', '--dd' ]
npm info using [email protected]
npm info using [email protected]
npm verb publish [ '.' ]
npm verb cache add spec .
npm verb addLocalDirectory /home/zen/.npm/succss/1.0.0/package.tgz not in flight; packing
npm verb tar pack [ '/home/zen/.npm/succss/1.0.0/package.tgz',
npm verb tar pack   '/home/zen/Projets/Informatique/OpenSource/github/Succss' ]
npm verb tarball /home/zen/.npm/succss/1.0.0/package.tgz
npm verb folder /home/zen/Projets/Informatique/OpenSource/github/Succss
npm info prepublish [email protected]
npm verb addLocalTarball adding from inside cache /home/zen/.npm/succss/1.0.0/package.tgz
npm verb afterAdd /home/zen/.npm/succss/1.0.0/package/package.json not in flight; writing
npm verb afterAdd /home/zen/.npm/succss/1.0.0/package/package.json written
npm verb publish registryBase https://registry.npmjs.org/

I also updated node and tried a date buffer as suggested here. Right now I can't figure what to do next to fix the problem. Thanks in advance.

Regardless of the official documentation, I wasn't aware that when one publishes a package, it is made of the local directory not the actual repository. I had a large amount of untracked files hence the "out of memory" error. When I moved away the largest directories it fixed the problem... However the proper solution is to use either a .gitignore, .npmignore or both.

Thanks to npm maintainer Smikes for the hints.
