💥 Crash on `bun install` from Git repository subdirectory

[e6]

Description

Bun is experiencing a fatal crash (Segmentation Fault / Illegal Instruction) when attempting to install a dependency located within a subdirectory of a remote Git repository. While Bun supports standard Git dependencies, the additional path: or subdirectory resolution logic appears to trigger a memory or assertion failure during the cloning/hoisting phase.

🔍 Observed Issue

• The Crash: Running bun install with a subdirectory-based Git dependency causes Bun to exit immediately with a core dump or panic: Internal assertion failure.
• The Trigger: This specifically occurs when using the syntax for sub-packages within a monorepo, e.g.:
  "dependency": "git+https://github.com/user/repo.git#path:packages/sub-package"
• Current State: The package manager fails to properly resolve the package.json inside the specified path, leading to a crash in PackageManagerTask.zig.

---

✨ Expected Behavior

Bun should:

1. Clone the repository into the local cache.
2. Navigate to the specified subdirectory path.
3. Install the package and its dependencies as a standard linked dependency, similar to pnpm or npm.

---

🛠️ Reproduction Steps

1. Create a new project with bun init.
2. Add a Git dependency that points to a subdirectory:

   bun add git+[https://github.com/example/monorepo.git#path:libs/my-lib](https://github.com/example/monorepo.git#path:libs/my-lib)
