Cannot install libraries from github

Open jfturcot opened this issue 14 years ago • 1 comments

There seems to be a problem with installing libraries from github, I can install them from other sites, but it fails when I try to install from a zip or a .js file that is hosted on github.

When I run the following command:

jim install http://github.com/quirkey/sammy/zipball/v0.5.4

I get the following and then it exits without installing it in my .jim folder:

fetching http://github.com/quirkey/sammy/zipball/v0.5.4

It might be something to do with the https redirect github is doing, but I also tried to install from the https url and I also have the same problem.

It works fine when I install jquery from the jquery servers and it also works fine when I install from a git:// url on github like the following:

jim install git://github.com/quirkey/sammy.git

Thank you.
