I noticed that treesit-install-language-grammar now automatically builds
the repository url from github:
(let ((repo-default (format "https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-%s"
lang)))
(read-string
"Enter the URL of the Git repository of the language grammar: "
(and (treesit--check-repo-url repo-default) repo-default)))
AFAICT GNU don’t want to promote/refer to github, that’s why I didn’t
include “official” grammar repositories in
treesit-language-source-alist. Was there a discussion that I missed?
This is a nice feature, but I’d hate having to remove it later, after
users have noticed it and started using/depending on it, due to some GNU
policy.

That’s very good news :-) Closing.
