Great!  I wonder if there's a lesson there for OPAM.  I could imagine having an 
auto-fork shortcut so that you could do:

$ opam install janestreet/type_conv

to get their latest tap.  I guess our equivalent is an explicit URL, which is 
much more flexible, but sadly more verbose due to the need for a separate pin 
step rather than a single installation instruction.
