I am trying to install React.js package via git/github.
Package installation directly via npm works. Unfortunately react-bootstrap/dom-helpers has a bug and repository owner/creator is reluctant to merge fix.
So I created my own repo and applied manually fix. Then I wanted to install it via git/github (quicker than creating npm package and distributing it - I don't know how to do this).
So I added line to my package.json:
"dependencies": {
[...]
"dom-helpers": "git://github.com/GovPredict/dom-helpers.git",
Then I found that this repo has pretty poor package.json (it doesn't ues files option etc) and when you install it via git and then check path
./node_modules/dom-helpers/
you find directory without source code (only files included by default: LICENSE, README.md are present).
I made some changes and right it almost works...
I say almost, because it looks like webpack doesn't load repo OR... package.json still has errors.
When I run webpack development then I have
ERROR in ../~/react-big-calendar/lib/Agenda.js

As you see something wrong is with loading files (webpack) or with package.
How to fix it (quality matters)?
EDIT 1
It looks like when you install files via npm package (without git) then
./node_modules/dom-helpers/
looks like

However when I install my dom-helpers fork via git, then I have:

So something wrong is with build process.
How to fix it?
