Separate homepage and repository fields for a package #842

Right now, Dart only supports specifying homepage field.

Right now, people are using their homepage URL in that field. This makes it harder to reach the actual project repository.

Would be nice if this homepage field is split into two:

  • Repository
  • Homepage

Here is an example of one of my projects:

I would like to have:

Fortuitous timing, I was trying to see how one might implement links to source files in dartdoc [for this issue], this would definitely help.

Closing this, as the use case is considered too rare.

My personal suggestion is that you fill the homepage: field with the github repo URL, and in the settings of that repo you can add the URL of the "traditional" homepage.
