What is the desired behavior if a package is already installed from PyPI and a rosdep rule requests the package be installed from a specific git URL like this? From what I can tell, this change will leave the package alone.

My 2 cents would be to have it prioritize the version from the specific URL and reinstall that fixed one with the assumption that it is an intentional development override; perhaps it should throw an alert/WARNING when doing so? Fixed URL packages do break traditional version tracking
