Install plugins from external sources

[ad-oliviero]

What do you want?

From my understanding, when zsh-snap installs plugins, it appears to search for a GitHub repository that matches the specified name, such as:

znap source marlonrichert/zsh-edit

which retrieves the repository from github.com/marlonrichert/zsh-edit. I would like the ability to specify an alternative source for the plugin.

Why do you want this?

If I want to install a plugin that is not hosted on github, but like on gitlab, I would need to download it manually (that defeats the whole purpose of having a plugin manager)

Who else would benefit from this?

Everyone who needs to use a plugin not hosted on github

How should it work?

Given this situation:
Plugin not on github.

When I perform these steps:

1. Could be done by specifying the whole url instead of just the plugin name

Then I expect this to happen:
Git clone the plugin and use it as all the other plugins
