NodeRed snap package with git dependency error

General
1

I'm using NodeRed version from snap.
when I try to install specific package named

node-red-contrib-esphome

I encounter an error about the git can't be found.
'An unknown git error occurre'

The package use a npm dependency from a git fork.
I think that this error is only happening because I use the snap version of NodeRed.

Is it possible that NodeRed does not support packages with git dependencies, or that this is just bug in the snap version of it.

Would be happy if some can try it out and let me know.

The snap runs in a very tight container so it doesn’t have access to things like git or gcc or hardware ports erc

Thanks
The dependency got uploaded to the npm store and now it works.
