invalid composer.json metadata packagist

Question

When I push new tag to my package to update my composer plugin it returns this error:

Update of failed, invalid composer.json metadata [Composer\Repository\InvalidRepositoryException] Some branches contained invalid data and were discarded, it is advised to review the log and fix any issues present in branches

Here is my composer.json file:

{
    "name": "package/name",
    "description": "....",
    "keywords": [
        "...",
        "...",
        "..."
    ],
    "homepage": "https://github.com/username/package-name",
    "type": "composer-plugin",
    "require": {
        "php": "^7.4|^8.0",
        "illuminate/support": "^7.0|^8.0|^9.0"
    },
    "require-dev": {
        "composer/composer": "^2.0"
    },
    "license": "MIT",
    "autoload": {
        "psr-4": {
            "Package\\Name\\": "src/"
        }
    },
    "authors": [
        {
            "name": "My name",
            "email": "[email protected]"
        }
    ],
    "minimum-stability": "dev"
}

And when I run composer validate I get ./composer.json is valid.

As you can see there is no domain name mention whatsoever but error is returning my domain name as invalid which says: must be an http/https URL

Any idea?

You need to read the error message in full and with peace of mind (unfortunately you were hiding it from the question by encoding it as image/png).

Don't look into one revision, instead search the history for it:

$ git log -p -S 'funding' main composer.json

It should get you started to learn about the revisions that are related to "funding" in composer.json within the main branch.
