NPM package without the .git file #12

When you upload the package to NPM you need to ignore the .git file, because you get an error when you try to install or update the package.

~ » npm install -g iso-8583

Hi, I ve published so many NPM modules and never experienced this. I wonder why you want to install the module globally? Can you point me to NPM docs to read more about ignoring .git folder?
