Hi all,

I try to install a git based npm package which is in a subdirectory. So far without any sucess! Any idea what the issue might be?

npm --version
# 11.4.2
node --version
# v24.3.0

# install command
npm install "git+https://$GH_USERNAME:$GH_PASSWORD@github.private/my/repository-library.git:#branch:sub/path/to/test-lib-folder"

Is the command wrong? Or maybe the content of the subpath has to be in a specific format? What would need to be changed to get it to work I was not able to find a suitable guide for that.

# library package.json
{
  "name": "@test/lib",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "type": "commonjs",
  "main": "./src/index.js",
  "types": "./src/index.d.ts",
  "dependencies": {
    "tslib": "^2.3.0"
  }
}
