Research direction

Start by locating the build-container definition and the entry point that installs Python dependencies. Check how the container is assembled and how the TOML dependency example is handled; done means a git-style dependency can be installed successfully when building a function.

Description

enhancement
What problem are you facing?

I'd like to use git dependencies, e.g. for as-yet unreleased function-sdk-python builds. Unfortunately I can't because the build container doesn't have git installed.

dependencies = [
  "crossplane-function-sdk-python @ git+https://github.com/negz/function-sdk-python.git@fb3968281747d4ee1f15b4f1eb14fec2a62c2326",
  "click==8.3.2",
  "grpcio>=1.73.1",
  "crossplane-models @ file:./../../schemas/python",
]
How could Crossplane help solve your problem?

Use a build container with git available.
