Description

In Unity 2018.3, the Unity Package Manager (UPM) supported Git. :)
https://forum.unity.com/threads/git-support-on-package-manager.573673/

This update allows us to quickly install packages on code hosting services such as GitHub.
But, I'm not quite satisfied with the feature. :(

Incorrect links to documents (readme, changelog, license)
There is not a link to repo URL
