@hackage cabalg0.1.1

alias for cabal install from given git repo

Short alias for installing cabal package from git source repository.

$> cabalg git:/github.combiegunka/biegunka.git --branch=develop

is just a shorthand for

$> create-dir tempdirectory $> git clone --branch develop --single-branch --depth=1 --quiet git:/github.combiegunkabiegunka.git temp/directory $> change-dir tempdirectory $> cabal install $> change-dir-back $> remove-dir tempdirectory@

If current directory has '.cabal-sandbox', cabalg will attach the given repo to it. Also notice, that '--single-branch' flag comes with 'git-1.7.10' (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/28/418) only, so you should have it.

It seems to be that cabalg is windows-compatible too.
