npm 6.9.1 is broken due to .git folder in published tarball

Running npm install npm@6.9.1 -g; npm install npm@6.9.0 -g fails.

You can upgrade to latest npm but you cannot downgrade.

This is due to

npm ERR! EISGIT

If you run npm pack npm to download the tarball and unpack it you fill find ./.git/logs in there.

This is probably a linux related issue.
