The issue:
Given a project that has the minimum-stability set to "stable" and a dependency of the project - itselv being stable - has a dependency to a dev-version of a lib.
How can one use composer require
to install that lib without having to prepare the composer.json before by adding the dependencies dependency as @dev
as described here.
As an example you can use the given composer.json and shell-command to test that issue. But it does not seem to be limited to that case.
