Tinker with your bower and node modules!
Why
------
I often find myself editing modules directly in node_modules or bower_components. When I'm done, I need to merge my changes back into a library repo or to revert to a released state.
Tinker provides some easy mechanisms to switch back and forth between modules installed from your favorite package manager and a git repo.
Getting Started
------
1. Install
``
$ npm install tinker -g
2. Initialize
`
project$ tinker init
3. Start tinkering! (copy .git folder or git clone)
`
project$ tinker on module_name
project$ tinker on 'start_of_name*'
Prompts will help you protect your work.
4. Execute commands on your modules
`
project$ tinker module_name gulp watch
project$ tinker module_name git status
project$ tinker module_name gulp test; gulp watch
5. Stop tinkering! (remove .git folder or clean install)
`
project$ tinker off module_name
