How to make a minimal installation with Bower

Question

I use Bower to manage all the libraries and tools that I use for the project. My bower.json file looks like this:

 { "name": "New Project", "version": "0.1.0", "dependencies": { "jquery": "~1.11.1", "bootstrap": "~3.3.4" } } 

When I run bower install , it creates a jquery/src directory with tons of JS files that I don’t need and will not use. I just need a jquery.min.js file. Is there a way to control how much is installed and how to make a minimal installation?

Just grab the files you need when using Bower
