Summary
The README.md "Building from Source" section contains a git clone command that points to https://github.com/GxAditya/Knowte.git — which appears to be a contributor's personal fork — rather than the canonical repository at https://github.com/zero-gate-org/Knowte.git. This is a clear documentation error that will cause confusion and incorrect clones for any new contributor following the README.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open
README.md.
- Navigate to the
## Building from Source → ### Development section.
- Observe the clone URL:
git clone https://github.com/GxAditya/Knowte.git
Expected Behaviour
The clone URL should point to the canonical upstream repository:
git clone https://github.com/zero-gate-org/Knowte.git
Actual Behaviour
The README instructs contributors to clone a personal fork (GxAditya/Knowte) instead of the main repository. A developer following these instructions will clone the fork, not the upstream, and will face confusion when trying to set up remotes, submit PRs, or understand branch history.
Impact
- Every new contributor following the setup guide clones the wrong repository.
- Contributors who notice the discrepancy lose trust in the documentation's accuracy.
- This is particularly harmful during open source programmes like GSSoC where many first-time contributors rely entirely on README instructions.
Proposed Fix
Change line in README.md:
# From:
git clone https://github.com/GxAditya/Knowte.git
# To:
git clone https://github.com/zero-gate-org/Knowte.git
I will also do a full pass of the README to check for any other stale fork references or broken links. Could you please assign this issue to me?
