Not necessarily. If the package has an official website, it should be used in the URL var instead of the repo. So in this case, the URL should contain the official website URL of the package [1] and the source array should contain the GitHub repo [2].

Allow me to rephrase :) I meant these two URIs should be related to the same fork i.e. Git remote. If Sharafat in the end decides to use Tatsh/kate-wakatime, then surely [1] will be the best option (good job finding it btw); but if wakatime/kate-wakatime is used for source in the end, I don't think [1] would still be appropriate as url? Let me know if this isn't true of course. On 9/1/23 23:57, Robin Candau wrote:
