Git subfolders#

You can specify a repository subfolder for a Git package through the path query parameter. The Package Manager will register the package located in the specified repository subfolder and disregard the rest of the repository.

Special considerations#

path must be a relative path to the root of the repository. An absolute path won't work. (ie: path=/subfolder is ok, path=c:\my\repo\subfolder is not.)
.. and . indirection notation is supported but will block at the repository root (/../../.. will resolve to / ) path query parameter must be placed before the revision anchor. The reverse order will fail.
A package manifest (package.json) is expected in the specified path.

Examples#

Path query parameter
https://github.com/user/repo.git?path=/example/folder

Revision anchor and path query parameter
https://github.com/user/repo.git?path=/example/folder#v1.2.3

Two packages from the same repository
https://github.com/user/repo.git?path=/packageA
https://github.com/user/repo.git?path=/packageB
