Some Indication of Popularity/Repute

composer Dependency Manager for PHP is on main bucket, I think having this software included on main bucket too is reasonable. This software is consist a .phar file (same as composer) and requires PHP to run. I suggest not to include PHP as its dependencies.

The latest release binary has an issues on Windows OS, it causes error on pickle install. There is a PR solved the issue (I tested it myself) and it's not been merged yet.

Please hold this package until the issue solved.
