Package dependencies from git

I've got a custom fork of the graph-visualizer package.

Adding this custom fork to my project's manifest.json works as expected:

Code (csharp):

1. //manifest.json
2. "dependencies": {
3.   ...
4.   "com.unity.playablegraph-visualizer": "https://github.com/Baste-RainGames/graph-visualizer.git",
5.   ...
6. }

But, when I try to add that package as a dependency for a different package:

Code (csharp):

1. //package.json
2. "dependencies": {
3.   "com.unity.playablegraph-visualizer": "https://github.com/Baste-RainGames/graph-visualizer.git"
4. },

That fails:



It seems like the dependency resolution doesn't work with git url's? This is using Unity 2018.4.4f1

 

Is the fix something that will land in the package manager package once it does, or does it require engine changes? We're sticking to 2018.4 LTS until launch, so if the fix is only going to land in the tech stream, I'll not worry about manual dependency resolution and just embed the visualizer directly in our library.

 

Have been discussed for such times in here
