 You can install packages with pipenv from git and other version control systems using URLs formatted according to the following rule:
 
-    <vcs_type>+<scheme>://<location>/<user_or_organizatoin>/<repository>@<branch_or_tag>#<package_name>
+    <vcs_type>+<scheme>://<location>/<user_or_organization>/<repository>@<branch_or_tag>#<package_name>
 
 The only optional section is the `@<branch_or_tag>` section.  When using git over SSH, you may use the shorthand vcs and scheme alias `git+git@<location>:<user_or_organization>/<repository>@<branch_or_tag>#<package_name>`. Note that this is translated to `git+ssh://git@<location>` when parsed.
