Listen Later

In this episode, we continue on the journey of Composer discovery,

discussing the recent tutorial How To Use Forked Repositories In Composer,
which dug deep into how to use forked repositories with Composer.

This is a very compelling part of Composer, one which can make your

Have you ever submitted a patch to a repository which your application

relies on, but, because that patch is vital to the uptime of your
application, you can’t wait for it to be reviewed and merged into the next

normally would, so that you don’t have to wait for the normal review,
merge, and release cycles.

So, grab a warm beverage, and come find out more!
