Maybe create a symlink by now?

I do not have a real solution for this.
So far the url needs to have a kind of format and there is no way to change it. Yes we can make the search of projects a bit more intelligent but right now it is not there.

The *trick* you can use (and I���m not sure is a trick at all or even something good, but at least it works ;) ) is that iceberg does not clones a project that is already in the image. So if you installed project dependency {projectName}, it will find it on his list and it will use it.

This has collateral not desired outputs (like if you ask for a tag or branch and it founds the project already there, it does not moves it to the place you asked for)��� I will fix that eventually :)

Now, this forces you to install previously the dependences which can be not desired either :(
