Conda: Installing / upgrading directly from github

Question

Can I install/upgrade packages from GitHub using conda?

For example, with pip I can do:

pip install git+git://github.com/scrappy/scrappy

I found a reference to this in condas issues. The following should now work.

name: sample_env
channels:
dependencies:
   - requests
   - bokeh>=0.10.0
   - pip:
     - git+https://github.com/pythonforfacebook/facebook-sdk.git
