How to use subpackage of nested Cargo.toml git project?

I want to use the package substrate-test-runtime-client from the substrate GitHub repo.

[dependency]
substrate-test-runtime-client = [git = "https://github.com/paritytech/substrate.git", branch = "master"]

Above Cargo.toml syntax doesn't resolve the issue. How can I extract, compile, and use a subpackage of umbrella package.

You are on the right track. You need to use curly brackets to specify an inline TOML table.

So either add the following to your Cargo.toml file.

[dependencies]
substrate-test-runtime-client = { git = "https://github.com/paritytech/substrate.git", branch = "master" }

Or use this which is equivalent

[dependencies.substrate-test-runtime-client]
git = "https://github.com/paritytech/substrate.git"
branch = "master"

Cargo will crawl the downloaded repository looking for a package called substrate-test-runtime-client. See here.
