I am trying to register a forked GitHub repo. code.dlang.org warns me that I am about to register a forked repo (yes, that is correct). After I click "Yes", I see "Missing form field." (despite I entered the repo URL correctly) My repo: https://github.com/vporton/redland-bindings

DUB registry bugs are tracked on GH: https://github.com/dlang/dub-registry/issues. Now if you look at https://github.com/dlang/dub-registry/pull/130, it seems that it's disallowed to prevent name hijacking: - person 1 makes a package, not registered. - person 2 fork person 1 package and register it. - person 1 wants to register but cannot because the name already used.
