Hi,
I wish to know if the scmurl field of the *.s4ext file in the ExtensionIndex must point to a github repository? Would an extension be built if it points elsewhere, to a gitlab repository for example?
Thank you.
Yes, gitlab should be fine as long as the scmurl points to something that can be cloned.

Hello!
And what about the modules built and available only locally? For instance, if I pack a module locally and distribute it myself, where scmurl should point at?
If you are using the regular build process for extensions you will need to point somewhere. It can be a directory that contains a git repository (just use the file path).
