According to machine-readable copyright specification¹ and to Debian policy², this field must contain the location where “upstream source came from” Since we use tarballs and that those are usually downloadable from the Homepage, I tend to think that the Homepage is a better choice, and it is the choice we’ve made so far. But arguably the git repository could also be an option. ¹ https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/#source-field ² https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs#s-copyrightfile -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ Sébastien Villemot ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Debian Developer ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ https://sebastien.villemot.name ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀ https://www.debian.org
