Created a git issue

I tried installing this via npm-ssb

npm install git-ssb -g --registry=http://localhost:8043/

this only fetched one package, which is a lot less than you get via the npm registry.

and when running I got this error

$ git fetch ssb
module.js:457
    throw err;
    ^

Error: Cannot find module 'git-remote-ssb/git-remote-ssb'

@dominic
What npm version?
Can you try setting config option {npm: {fetchAll: true}}, restarting sbot, and then re-running the install command?

@cel %MwrYH7BsMGSJQqPFUQOnsMJk1W/nVM1MOx4YLfckE9I=.sha256

also may need to add --prefer-online to the install command when trying it again

okay I tried all of these but the same problem, but then I set --cache-min 0 and it seems to be working now.

Ah now it's trying to pull down a huge number of blobs,
and it's gotten stuck on mime-types several times now.
