https://github.com/cclauss/Ten-lines-or-less/blob/master/read_zipfile_from_github.py
- In Safari browser, navigate to a GitHub repo of interest.
- Tap the green Clone or download button.
- Tap Download ZIP. (Big repos may take several seconds to download).
- Tap Open in....
- Tap Run Pythonista Script.
- Pick this script and tap the run button.
- When you return to Pythonista the files should be in ~/from GitHub/.
If you want more power, get the app Working Copy and then check out https://github.com/cclauss/Pythonista-and-Working-Copy

EDIT: Don't do this for PyPI packages... Instead, see JonB's advise below.
In StaSH, you could try:
pip install https://github.com/chriswilson1982/black-white/archive/master.zip

Pip requires actual pypi packages.
Also should work:
git clone https://github.com/chriswilson1982/black-white.git ~/blackwhite
