+After running the above command, the resulting package.json looks like :

+The '--nosave' flag prevents adding and deleting specified platforms from
config.xml and package.json. To prevent saving a platform, you issue the
following command :

+```bash
+$ cordova platform add <platform[@<version>] | directory | git_url>
--nosave

Some examples :
- * **'cordova platform add android --save'** => retrieves the pinned
version of the android platform, adds it to the project and then updates
config.xml.
- * **'cordova platform add [email protected] --save'** => retrieves the
android platform, version 3.7.0 from npm, adds it to the project and then
updates config.xml.
- * **'cordova platform add
android@https://github.com/apache/cordova-android.gitâ --save'** => clones
the specified cordova-android git repository, adds the android platform to the
project, then updates config.xml and point its version to the specified git-url.
- * **'cordova platform add C:/path/to/android/platform --save'** =>
retrieves the android platform from the specified directory, adds it to the
project, then updates config.xml and point to the directory.
+ * **'cordova platform add android'** => retrieves the pinned version of

can we changed this to `cordova platform add
https://github.com/apache/cordova-android.gitâ`. Also, instead of saying
clones the specified codova-android git repository, lets say npm installs the
specified cordova-android from the git repository.
