I ran into\r\nan edge case though, that is at least as far as I can see not handled by conan.\r\n\r\nSome dependencies don't include a build system. This is specifically relevant to micro-libraries,\r\nwhere you are supposed to simply include their sources into your build system.\r\n\r\nExamples would be:\r\nhttps://github.com/ocornut/imgui\r\nhttps://github.com/recastnavigation/recastnavigation\r\n\r\nIt would be nice to have the ability to add dependency sources and possibly even patch them.\r\nE.g. a project depending on imgui, that patches the imconfig.h to suit their needs."}}
