<p>We have some projects living outside the Drupal CMS repository, but are nonetheless maintained by us and are part of our ecosystem:</p>
<ul>
<li>Recipe Installer Kit</li>
<li>Drupal CMS Site Template Base</li>
<li>Byte</li>
<li>Byte Theme</li>
<li>Mercury</li>
</ul>
<p>When we install these for local development, we always want to install the dev branches and full version history (so that we can easily make merge requests and check out branches without taking additional steps). We can do that with Composer if we configure it properly.</p>
