Do you want to request a feature or report a bug?
bug

What is the current behavior?
Install a package using git remote url, git+https://git@github.com/Glench/fuzzyset.js.git.
Then install another package, moment.
Installation of moment fails (stops at Resolving packages...) and the error reads as:

error Couldn't find any versions for fuzzyset.js that matches github.com/Glench/fuzzyset.js.git. Possible versions: 0.0.1

Same thing happens if moment is installed using git+https://git@github.com/moment/moment.git. The next package to be installed fails and similar error appears about moment.

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce.

mkdir test6 && cd test6
yarn init
yarn add git+https://git@github.com/Glench/fuzzyset.js.git
yarn add moment

What is the expected behavior?
moment package should have installed fine.

Please mention your node.js, yarn and operating system version.
node v5.9.0
yarn 0.16.1
windows 10

Created #1589 to fix this, pending approval.

Today I had this problem using yarn v0.23.2 and yarn v0.23.4.

I was able to install a package from a github repo by doing:

yarn add https://github.com/picmonkey/rheostat/tarball/pm-master

I'm still having issues with this.

Ah, yarn add 'git+ssh://git@github.com:ccorcos/oy.git#0.10.1' worked
