npm create @shopify/hydrogen@latest should not delete .git directory

[PSmith-SmithAndCo]

For context: I have been hired to convert an existing php project to a Shopify Hydrogen project.
Running npm create @shopify/hydrogen@latest against a non-empty directory either forces the user to delete everything in that folder - including .git - or abandon the process.

It is annoying that the user has to delete everything. However; I understand that it would be cumbersome - if not impossible - for the Hydrogen team to figure out what is safe to keep and what would cause conflicts with the generated code.

The .git folder is probably safe to keep, though.

I was able to work around this by copying the contents of the .git directory out of the folder and then copying it back in after running npm create @shopify/hydrogen@latest.
