You can include it via Bundler as Chris and Ivan has suggested, but it won't be 
listed as a gem dependency in rubygems.

ie, having it in the gem file, means you could go into the installed gem 
directory and type "bundle install" to install all the gems you need, but the 
dependent gems listed this way will not be installed when you do a "gem install 
yourgem" which I think is your expected behaviour.

A "simple" solution, is fork the git repo, make a gem of the code and publish 
it as "yourname-gemname" and depend on that until an "official" version is 
released.
