I am not 100% certain what you see when you cllck on the "git repo" link.
Perhaps it is browser-dependent, or depends on whether SourceForge recognizes you?
For me it lands on a page where the navigation panel directly below the line with the
gnuplot logo and title "gnuplot Git Repository" looks like this:
Summary Files Reviews Support Tickets▾ Git Repository Mailing Lists Discussion News ...
The Tickets pull-down opens up the bug tracker, feature requests, etc.
I can change the home page to say "git repository and issue tracker".
That's a reasonable idea.
I don't know if there's a better label than "Tickets" for the pull-down menu on the
project page (and for that matter I don't know if I can change it).

I agree it would be good to duplicate that link at the top of the home page.

Every time one runs gnuplot it starts with the splash page
