Currently NPM does not run prepublish after installing a package from a Git repository.
When working with a team (i.e: I cannot ask team members to run npm install specifically on a dependent package), how can I use a package that requires a build step when installing from a Git repo?

To npm install a public project that is hosted on Github, and not the NPM registry, add the Github repo to package. json dependencies using the username/repo#branch-name format. Run npm install and npm will download the project and save it into your /node_modules/ folder.
json and publish it to npm using the same version. You can't publish again using the same version, or a previous one. You can read more about versioning here. Don't forget to build before publishing.
npm install : Installs the package from the hosted git provider, cloning it with git.
You can try this: https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm-git-install
It requires nodegit, so you'll have to be able to install that as well on your system.
