lyp already supports installing packages from local files.

  lyp install mypack:~/mypack-repo

This feature can be used also for package development.

Git is only used for the process of installing packages: lyp clones the git
repository, checks out the correct version, then copies the files to
~/.lyp/packages. As I wrote in the other message, lyp doesn't even require
having git installed on your machine. It uses gitlib2 with ruby bindings.
