There is no official XScreenSaver GitHub repository.

What xscreensaver is

I am jwz, the author of XScreenSaver, and I do not publish a public source code repository. I publish releases as tar files on the official web site and only there. If you see any other XScreenSaver repository (on GitHub or elsewhere) that has nothing to do with me and you should not trust it.
