PKGBUILD feedback: footy-git

I was searching for a simple football fixture, and I found this: https://github.com/fritzrehde/footy

So, I made this PKGBUILD following the repo instructions:

# Maintainer: Adrián Romero <adriik.linux@proton.me>
pkgname=footy-git
_pkgname=footy
pkgver=r81.0608ed5
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc='A simple shell script that displays the latest football scores, fixtures and standings.'
arch=('any')
url='https://github.com/fritzrehde/footy'
license=('MIT')
depends=('jq' 'bash')
makedepends=('git') 
provides=("$_pkgname")
source=("$_pkgname::git+$url")
install="$_pkgname.install"
md5sums=('SKIP')

pkgver() {
	cd "$srcdir/$_pkgname"

	printf "r%s.%s" "$(git rev-list --count HEAD)" "$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)"

}

package() {
	cd "$srcdir/$_pkgname"

	install -D -m644 LICENSE.md "$pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname/LICENSE"
	make install INSTALL_DIR="$pkgdir/usr/bin/"
}

And the install file:

post_install() {
  cat << EOF

Since footy uses the data provided by football-data.org, an api-key is required.
  
Set the api-key by running footy -k <api-key> 
or manually create the file $HOME/.config/footy/api-key.txt containing only the api-key.'

EOF
}

I know it's a simple PKGBUILD, but maybe there's a dumb error that I can't see or you guys have a more elegant solution.
I'm asking for feedback because I want to submit this to AUR, and I don't want to submit something ugly.

Thanks.

Re: PKGBUILD feedback: footy-git

source=("$_pkgname::git+$url")

will probably fail as the clone url needs toi be $url.git  .

Personally I'd put the  make install command before the command to place the license as it feels cleaner to me that way.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?

It seems to work using the url without the .git:

> LANG=C git clone https://github.com/fritzrehde/footy

Resolving deltas: 100% (153/153), done.

But to be safe, I'm going to add the .git in PKGBUILD.
