It might not be when installing btc-rpc-explorer globally (npm install -g).
Without this, running btc-rpc-explorer without .git resulted in:
fatal: Not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /home/user)
Stopping at filesystem boundary (GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set).

- updated package-lock
- include sample .env file for easy reference
- continue to support key-by-key updating from credentials.js for now
- minor code formatting
- reflect status of BTCEXP_NO_RATES in UI when applicable (hide new exchanged-currency items from display dropdown and hide exchange rate on homepage)
- rename _LOGIN to _BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD for clarity
- tweak README to call out .env-sample
This ensures a unique, hard-to-guess cookie secret for every instance.
Also, renamed from "cookiePassword" to "cookieSecret" to better express
its meaning.
- cleaner support for handling credentials (new app/defaultCredentials.js has the defaults, git-ignored app/credentials.js overwrites)
- update some dependencies
- in tx history, request/display all inputs to get correct gain/loss values
- cross referencing for txid history from electrum
- include genesis coinbase values for genesis coinbase output address (electrum ignores the genesis coinbase TX and +50 value, but for consistency with the rest of this tool they're included)
- banner describing the electrum trust model
- ui tweaks including showing gain/loss for each address tx history item
- Some reorganization and renaming
- Ensure that blocks include their coinbase tx so we can query it to guess miner identity
- Use open-source miner-identification list to guess
