Recently I needed to test a branch of a forked GitHub repository inside a project. Instead of cloning the fork and symlinking the package locally, I installed the remote dependency directly into the project.
To achieve I used the following command:
Using NPM:
npm install user/repo.git#branchnameUsing Yarn:
yarn add ssh://git@github.com:user/repo.git#branchname💡 If you’re targeting a specific commit or tag, replace branchname with the commmithash or tagname
Did this help you out? Like what you see?
Thank me with a coffee.

I don\'t do this for profit but a small one-time donation would surely put a smile on my face. Thanks!
