Is there a way to specify that a package depends on the current master 
branch of another package.

My problem is the following:

   - I am developing a package that samples from the MultivariateNormal 
   distribution in Distributions.jl. 
   - This pacakge calls unwhiten! from PDMats.jl. 
   - unwhiten! tries to access the uplo field of the Cholesky type in 
   base/lingalg/cholesky.jl 
   - The way this field is accessed was recently changed an PDMats.jl just 
   updated the unwhiten! method 2 days ago (
   
https://github.com/JuliaStats/PDMats.jl/commit/53cb7f5a182755e141bed5fb1c9c683d1283d304
   ) 

I would like to make my package require the current master branch of 
PDMats.jl. I know I can do this manually via Pkg.checkout("PDMats"), but I 
don’t want to force users to do this. 

In the REQUIRE file can I specify that I need to “checkout” PDMats?
