installation – Can conda or pip install arbitrary non-python git repos in the environment’s $PATH

Can conda install code from a git repo? I’m not talking about python code that has a setup.py but a codebase that may have a bash or perl script ready to run in the repo’s root? Obviously I wouldn’t expect to do dependency checking, but being able to send an environment.yml file to pull specific dependencies as well as a git codebase would be ideal.

A specific use case would be when setting up a nextflow module for a codebase that isn’t in python, if that is helpful. Typically there is one or more container option and a conda option, so it’s really conda that I’m after.
