I've recently install new Laravel Installer to get version 8 I was having the following error:

[Symfony\Component\Console\Exception\RuntimeException]
The "--remove-vcs" option does not exist.

I thought primarily that was the installer of laravel and didn't find any article about, but the problem was in my composer that need update.
For it I tried:
composer self-update
And I got
[RuntimeException]
SHA384 is not supported by your openssl extension, could not verify the phar file integrity
So the process would be uninstall Composer and install again
To remove:
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/composer
To install:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | sudo php
Making composer Global:
sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
Test Composer:
composer
Finally I installed laravel again.
composer global require laravel/installer
