I want to install modules from a git repository

Example usage

#  HEAD out of the master branch
$ puppet module install puppetlabs-apache --git=https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-apache.git

#  install some <treeish> out of the repository, this should respect branches/tags
$ puppet module install puppetlabs-apache --git=https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-apache.git --version=<treeish>

Issue #14263 has been updated by Patrick Otto.

The docs mention a “repository”, but I have to say this feature would be really helpful (especially with the provider from #11209) to install internal/customized modules on a puppet master without going through a publishing process on something like the forge.

Kelsey, can you take a look at this and give some idea how hard it would be?

Having talked about this, we don’t think it is a bad idea, but we also don’t think it brings a huge amount of immediate, short term value to the table compared to improvements to module publishing and the ability to discover good content through the forge.

We would absolutely take patches to implement this.
