Can't install anything using "npm install"

Question

I updated my node.js installation since it was very outdated but now I'm stuck with npm install not working.
It starts doing it's thing but aborts about 30% into the installation on any package I've tried.
I have no more ideas on what to do since I tried reinstalling node and updating hit with no success.

Here's an output of npm install --verbose - https://gist.github.com/friiks/ad4fd4f02e8cc60740c369c45524343d

and here's the package.json I'm using

{
  "name": "projectname",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "description": "",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "repository": {
    "type": "git",
    "url": "<git url>"
  },
  "author": "Pankucins",
  "license": "ISC",
  "bugs": {
    "url": "<git url>/issues"
  },
  "homepage": "<git url>#readme",
  "dependencies": {
    "express": "^4.13.4",
    "socket.io-p2p": "^2.2.0"
  }
}

edit

npm install express --save doesn't work as well, in any folder I've tried.

Ok, I'm pretty sure it's git that causes the problem. I'm using cmder to do my console stuff in and this is what I see before npm stops.
First - https://i.stack.imgur.com/Ahzn5.png
Then - https://i.stack.imgur.com/tGKgs.png
And after that it crashes. FYI this is how the console looks after the crash when I don't redirect the output to a file - https://i.stack.imgur.com/VXfTs.png

Thanks in advance

Have you tried deleting the node_modules folder and doing npm cache clean ? — grimurd, Apr 30 '16 at 14:10
I removed node_modules folder before and did `npm cache clean` now but still no luck. — Pankucins, Apr 30 '16 at 20:29
Check the upgrading on windows and reinstall sections on this site and try those out https://github.com/npm/npm/wiki/Troubleshooting — grimurd, Apr 30 '16 at 20:43
Have you looked into proxy issues? I had a similar issue and npm config set strict-ssl false worked for me — devdropper87, May 01 '16 at 13:41
It's my local computer. It was running fine until I updated node and git. — Pankucins, May 01 '16 at 14:28

This solved the issue for me. I had set my npm to target somewhere else than http://registry.npmjs.org/.

Hope this helps to others!
