cannot install from npm [windows]

[istian]

hi Guys,

I'm trying to install this package via npm but have no luck. it always say can't connect to github. I have my git config global set to use https instead of git protocol and in fact npm install other packages works only this package. Am I missing something? or is there any workaround on this aside from direct cloning?

Thanks

were you able to resolve this?

This is probably related to issue #3, there is a git dependency to Bessdsv's fork of bower-installer, which (as far as I can tell) is no longer necessary given the resolution of the issue upstream in blittle/bower-installer via PR's 62 and 101.

My solution (issue with an internal firewall) was to publish a fork without that dependency internally and so far that seems to be working fine.

I have this issue on OSX as well

Since the pull request to fix the issue has been sitting untouched for months, a fork has been made with the fix. See details here: #10 Branch here: https://github.com/AStoker/karma-jasmine-jquery/

Via npm and Bower, it was registered under the name karma-jasmine-jquery-2 to avoid naming conflicts, but can also be installed via JSPM just fine. Unfortunate that it came to this, but it has been causing trouble for some time now.
