Add a Git dependency

Bun supports directly adding GitHub repositories as dependencies of your project.

bun add github:lodash/lodash

---

This adds the following line to your package.json:

{
  "dependencies": {
    "lodash": "github:lodash/lodash"
  }
}

---

Bun supports several protocols for specifying Git dependencies.

bun add git+https://github.com/lodash/lodash.git
bun add git+ssh://github.com/lodash/lodash.git#4.17.21
bun add git@github.com:lodash/lodash.git
bun add github:lodash/lodash#4.17.21

When possible, Bun downloads GitHub dependencies as HTTP tarballs, which is faster.
