Currently pulling in our data layer at work with a line in our package.json that looks like this:
"repoName": "git+ssh://git@github.com:companyName/repoName.git"
Would like to know how I can pull in a different branch of the repo through NPM so that I can experiment without affecting the branch that the production servers pull from?
Any alternative ideas are appreciated as well.
You can pull it with a branch by adding a hash # after the link.
"repoName": "git+ssh://git@github.com:companyName/repoName.git#branch"
This can also work for a tag #0.1.2 or a specific commit hash id #b50b5e4787c988fed89b018d10064279311fffe7.
