But composer doesn't allow you to include that branch as dependency because has different name from the master branch. \r\n\r\nHowever you can \"hack\" this removing master branch, naming it in another way. \r\n\r\nWhy you just don't remove this limit? \r\n\r\nI've created a more specific related comment some days ago here: https://github.com/composer/composer/issues/2588#issuecomment-219210375"}}
