I think at some point you would be better off vendoring them in.


That’s effectively what I did in a very roundabout way with docker images and caching that ended up abusing the GitLab free tier for image hosting. When you put it like that it does make me think there was a simpler solution, lol.

When I’m hacking on a C project and it’s got a bunch of code ripped out of another project, I’m like “heh, look at these primordial dependency management practices.” But five years later that thing is gonna compile no problem…


There’s even a command for that: npm pack
