问题
I was wondering if makes any sense to use in the npm install command the --global and the --save parameters all together. For example:
npm install gulp -g -s
As far as I know there is no package.json in the npm system folder, so I suppose the answer is "no", but I want to clear all doubt.

The npm install command does not support installing a module both globally and save it to the package.json in one step.
There is, however, a way to install a module globally indirectly. The package.json supports a preinstall property like so:
"scripts": {
"preinstall": "npm install -g gulp"
}
As soon as you execute npm install, gulp will be installed globally. Please note that your current user then needs permission to write to your global node module directory.
