I want to use a fork of one of my dub dependencies so I can make sure that it works before I merge the fork into upstream.

     Path-based dependencies
    Package descriptions in the dub.json/dub.sdl can specify a path instead of a version; this can be used with Git submodules or subtrees, or with a known directory layout, to use arbitrarily defined versions of a dependency. Note that this should only be used for non-public packages.
     Path-based selections
    You can specify arbitrary versions, branches, and paths in the dub.selections.json file, even if they contradict the dependency specification of the packages involved (note that DUB will output a warning in that case).

but doesn't give any examples.

my dub.selections.json is currently:

{
     "fileVersion": 1,
     "versions": {
         "derelict-cl": "2.0.0",
         "derelict-cuda": "2.0.1",
         "derelict-util": "2.1.0",
         "taggedalgebraic": "0.10.7"
     }
}

I want derelict-cl to use
C:\Users\me\Documents\GitHub\DerelictCL

How do I do that?

Thanks
Nic


Alternatively you can alter the package that dub already knows about.
Does the trick more easily ;)
