How do you install from a repo, rather than the npm registry?

Hey @adambowles! Thanks for the question. Can you clarify what you mean? Are you referring to a git repo? If so, you can do this the same as you would with npm. Happy to help and provide commands if you can be more specific. Thanks!

@kittens It looks like yarn does not support npm supported shorthand syntax e.g. facebook/react.git, only fully qualified.

Hey,

I have this in my package.json:
"package-name": "git+ssh://[email protected]:libraries/app-switcher.git"
(Privately hosted git server)

yarn gives the following error:

info No lockfile found.
[1/4] Resolving packages...
error Couldn't find package "package-name" on the "npm" registry.
