Thanks, Khomoutov.  I turned out that when I went back to version 2.7.0 of Git (as mentioned in this post https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/776) that I no longer received the fork errors.  However, then I received a Permission error and also wasn't thrilled that I had to use an old Git.  After some installing and uninstalling different ways, I remembered that when things were working for me in the past, I had the GitHub shell installed.  So, I installed the GitHub shell with the newest version of Git and was able to use its  Git Shell without problem.  Now, I can build my app with npm successfully.

Have you tried searching through Git for Windows bugtracker [1] for your problem. I'm pretty sure it was recently discussed there. The issue #776 [2] looks like the one you're experiencing.
