    "I wouldn't advise people to use git to install packages, simply because they might not bother to remove arbitrary files (e.g. .gitignore, demo files and alike)."

    You can ignore certain files in your releases using Git Attributes.

      That's pretty cool, but aren't releases different from just cloning the master repo?

        well with bower you could at least specify which files bower should pull from the repo, in that case only the dist files and maybe dev basics. I ended up including my demos for Paradeiser anyway as many people seem to have problems with following docs :/

          Makes sense! I tend to use gulp with bower and extract the main files with it. Then the bower component can sit in the local project as simply reference.
