That did successfully install the package. However, as per the documentation for Pkg.clone<http://docs.julialang.org/en/latest/stdlib/pkg/?highlight=pkg.clone#Base.Pkg.clone>, it did so under the package name "jmw". Did you mean for the second argument to be a branch name? You can checkout a specific branch after cloning the package using the Pkg.checkout command. Also, SQLite is an official, registered package, so installing it via Pkg.clone is a bit unusual. Do you need John's fork for some particular reason?
