Commit 2f71270
Run packager.sh using '.' instead of 'source'.
Summary:
'source' is not available in all shells on Linux (e.g. dash) and will silently fail launchPackager.command when called from runAndroid.js.
react-native run-android will thus silently fail to start the developement server ('JS server').
What existing problem does the pull request solve?
When running "react-native run-android" on the below reasonably vanilla Ubuntu system, the development server / packager script fails to start. It fails because sh defaults to dash (not bash) which doesn't know the command 'source'. dot (.) does the same as source, but works in all shells.
