add target local repo about package_control HOT 5 CLOSED

It is unlikely I will have time to work on this in the near future, however if you look at the source, you can see there is a class called PackageProvider. This is extended to create the GitHubPackageProvider, GitHubUserProvider and BitBucketPackageProvider classes.

Basically you just need to implement a class that can recognize local paths, and then write code to perform whatever action you need to get a zip file out of it. Most likely you are going to want to do a git export and then zip it up. The VcsUpgrader class would probably server as a decent place to start in terms of executing a git export comand. The create_package() method in the PackageManager class has some examples of creating zip files.

Once your class is created, you can add it to the _package_providers variable.

Yes please

I think for the short term, I am going to have to revert back to vim. I am spending an inordinate amount of time programming my editor instead of programming with my editor :). I'll check back in after a few releases.

Sure, feel free to reopen this if you ever feel like adding the functionality.
