Using Github for pypi packge versioning

Question

I am trying to find a way to use my Github repo tags for versioning of my package, which should be available for download using something like pip. The problem is every time I update the package version I have to upload the contents to pypi. Is there any way to just set the donwload url in pypi point to my github repo, So that when I do something like pip install -I MySQL_python==1.2.2 and it just install that form the git tag 1.2.2, without me having to upload the version to pypi.

EDIT:(I was not clear enough)

I know about the pip install git+git://blabal way I am looking for something like I tell pypi that my package is at github.com/bla.git and the user does pip install bla==1.2 and pip install that from github (with version as tag) Something like vundle for vim

You could install like this:

pip install -e git+<repo address>@<ref>#egg=<egg name>

where ref could be a commit id, tag name or branch name.

Read the docs.
