Incorrect locator generated for `//DEPS` links to GitHub repos
https://www.jbang.dev/documentation/guide/latest/dependencies.html#using-links-to-git-sources
says that https://github.com/jbangdev/jbang is converted to the locator com.github.jbangdev:jbang:HEAD-SNAPSHOT. I'm seeing it being converted to a jbang:-SNAPSHOT locator, which can't resolve.
I wondered about just dropping the line in the docs, but it's possibly almost as easy to correct the locator generation to do what the docs say.
For example,
//DEPS https://github.com/holly-cummins/github-api/
gives
Run jbangdev/[email protected]

[jbang] Resolving dependencies...
[jbang] com.github.holly-cummins:github-api:-SNAPSHOT
[jbang] info.picocli:picocli:4.2.0
Error: [ERROR] Could not resolve dependencies: Could not find artifact com.github.holly-cummins:github-api:jar:-SNAPSHOT
...
I see the same thing locally with jbang 0.92.2
Tree references with an explicit commit, like //DEPS https://github.com/holly-cummins/github-api/tree/gg287262 do generate a correct locator. If I add a tree reference to head, it works, as long as SNAPSHOT is mentioned explicitly:
//DEPS https://github.com/holly-cummins/github-api/tree/main#:SNAPSHOT
Without the SNAPSHOT, it doesn't work:
//DEPS https://github.com/holly-cummins/github-api/tree/main
gives a locator of com.github.holly-cummins:github-api:jar:main, which isn't valid. (That's maybe ok, because the docs don't say it should work, I was just trying it as a workaround.)
