npm git repository not updating versions

Question

I have an git repo and I\'m trying to set it as a dependency in my project. Using NPM, my package.json looks like this:

\"devDependencies\": {
  \"g         


        

Answer 1

This have been fixed in npm, please upgrade to npm >= 1.3.10

Sample usage

"dependencies": { "thing": "git://github.com/myGitHubRepo/repo.js.git#56477cb", }

Some day later

"dependencies": { "thing": "git://github.com/myGitHubRepo/repo.js.git#67f90b5", }

Then npm install again and you will get new ref!

If your "myGitHubRepo/repo.js" is a private package you should set "private": true there to ensure it doesn't get accidentally published to npm registry
