I wish to add a package called FastConv
which I found on github. However, trying to add it the usual way using Pkg
does not work.
julia> Pkg.add("FastConv");
ERROR: The following package names could not be resolved:
* FastConv (not found in project, manifest or registry)
Please specify by known `name=uuid`.

Can you suggest a way to incorporate packages from github manually ? Or a link that explains how to.
