Configuration

Operating system: Windows 10

PlatformIO Version (platformio --version): version 5.0.1a1

Description of problem

Trying to install library dependency that requires an other dependency from git.
When installing the dependency from library.json (that references to a git repo), the semantic_version tries to parse the git url as a semantic version, but off course fails.

Steps to Reproduce

1. a dependency with a library.json that refers to a git repo: (used ref: https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/librarymanager/config.html#dependencies)

"dependencies": [
    {
      "name": "AsyncTCP",
      "version": "https://github.com/Bmooij/AsyncTCP.git",
      "platforms": "espressif32"
    }
  ]

2. Add the library with the library.json to your platformio.ini file

[env:esp32dev]
platform = https://github.com/platformio/platform-espressif32.git#v1.12.4
board = esp32dev
framework = arduino
lib_deps =
    ESP Async WebServer = https://github.com/Bmooij/ESPAsyncWebServer.git#1.2.3.3

3. Build project

Actual Results

ValueError: Invalid simple block 'https://github.com/Bmooij/AsyncTCP.git':
