How to install a pod from the repository with .podspec located in a directory?

Question

I'm trying to install a Pod from the git repository with a branch.

Something like this:

pod 'ThePod', :git => 'https://gitlab.kz/company/mobile/ios-app.git', :branch => 'feature-branch'

✅ There is no problem if a .podspec file is located in the root of the repository.

⚠️ The problem is, that .podspec file is located inside the /src directory.

So, when I run pod install, of course I get

[!] Unable to find a specification for 'ThePod'.

which is obvious.

Is there any chance to specify the path to a .podspec file while using the :git => configuration?

Maybe with `:podspec => URLPathOfThePodSpec` instead of `:git`? — Larme, Nov 27 '18 at 08:59
@Larme I can link to .podspec raw value which is located in the remote git branch. But, It doesn't work. — Almas Adilbek, Nov 27 '18 at 09:37
@Larme The different one that says cannot format the contents of URL (URL to podspec). Do you have a working example of how you use `:podspec =>` configuration? — Almas Adilbek, Nov 27 '18 at 14:12

I don't think so. When I ran into this problem, I moved the .podspec files to the repo root.
