What I Wanted to Do

I have few https git packages in package json. I want to install private ssh+git repo after initial installation is done.

npm ci 
npm install npm install git+ssh://git@gitlab.com/private_repo_path.git#master --save --no-audit

removed 3 packages and updated 1 package in 16.676s

What Happened Instead

Npm removes my https modules during installation of private git+ssh module.

Reproduction Steps

1. add these packages to your package.json

    "react-native-track-player": "https://github.com/react-native-kit/react-native-track-player.git#dev",
    "react-native-twitter-signin": "https://github.com/GoldenOwlAsia/react-native-twitter-signin.git",
    "react-native-vimeo": "https://github.com/Myagi/react-native-vimeo.git",

2. install it once using npm install, make sure npm ci works.
3. now try to install any private git+ssh repo.

npm install git+ssh://git@gitlab.com/git_repo_path.git#master --save --no-audit

4. observe
   git https:// repos have been removed during step 3.

Details

I’ve reproduced it on local ubuntu and in docker.
