Ahhh, zsh-nvm requires that nvm has been installed via git.

Although it shouldn't be trying to install over your previous installation, it checks if nvm exists first with `[[ ! -f "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ]]`.

Out of interest what does: `[[ ! -f "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ]] && echo "nvm doesn't exist" || echo "nvm exists"` return?

If you wanna try it out you could backup your "$NVM_DIR/versions" folder and restore it. That holds all your node installs and global modules.

Strange...

Is it a symlink or something? Does `ls "$NVM_DIR"` list nvm.sh anywhere?

No :(

I've opened an issue, because I think we're polluting HN
