Dear Developers and Maintainers.
This is related to Issue #50.
I mentioned this in Issue #50 but did not get any special comments, so I am requesting a pull request to make you aware of it.
There is a desire to register packages that are only available on GitHub, or packages that are available on CRAN but have a development version available on GitHub, in miniCRAN's repository. At least I do.
The fact that it has not yet been implemented after various discussions in #50 suggests that there may be some problems, but I think it is a good feature to be reconsidered.
The code I pull request basically depends on the functionality of the
remotespackage, which means that there will be more dependencies.
