Updating composer after adding a dependency in Laravel 4 gives me error

I get the following error on a fresh Laravel 4 install after adding a new dependency to the composer.json and running composer update. Any ideas?

[RuntimeException]
Source directory /var/www/projects/adcraft/vendor/laravel/framework has uncommitted changes.

Another way you can solve this is by setting the discard changes in the config parameter in your composer.json file, see https://getcomposer.org/doc/06-config.md#discard-changes.

{
  "name": "test",
  "description": "Demonstrating concepts",
...
  "config": {
    "process-timeout": 1800,
    "discard-changes" : true
  },
...
}

This worked for me.

You could go in that vendor/laravel/framework directory and run git status to see what changes there are. Anyway if you self-update composer to its latest version, it should now prompt you and ask if you want to revert those changes before updating instead of failing hard.
