I need to install libraries such as phpunit and chrome-php on my php project.

My problem is that they are installed as git repositories, which means I cannot add the sourcecodes to my git repository.

I tried tu use the “preferred-install” parameter with “dist” and “source” values but nothing changes.

I know this is bad practice, but I really need to have this file in my git repository.

I have heard that I could use a “subtree merge strategy” to resolve my problem but I can’t figure out how to do it.

I am not an experienced developper so any tips will be very helpfull 🙂
