When I searched for text "github" I did not find anything. But searching in the inspector to cover urls:
Which makes it all the more confusing. Stored there, but patches only elsewhere?
Really, for a "moved their sources" claim I'd prefer some form of announcement or docs that describe this.
I have searched a bit more. The transition is in process since 2023. [1] I don't find any announcement though.
It looks like the process is now finished and the github repository is now the official main source. There are other news sites claiming this. [2]
