  + * 1. Path to .tgz file - in this case the script replaces the scoped dependency (@nativescript/angular) with it in the package.json file. Then packs.
  + * 2. Tag or exact version - in this case the script does `npm install --save-exact` to save the exact version (in case if tag). Then packs.
  + * 3. `auto-version` - this is interpreted by getting version from the scoped package.json file (nativescript-angular folder).
