Lib.rs has been able to verify that all files in the crate's tarball are in the crate's repository. Please note that this check is still in beta, and absence of this confirmation does not mean that the files don't match.
Crates in the crates.io registry are tarball snapshots uploaded by crates' publishers. The registry is not using crates' git repositories, so there is a possibility that published crates have a misleading repository URL, or contain different code from the code in the repository.
To review the actual code of the crate, it's best to use cargo crev open clipboard. Alternatively, you can download the tarball of clipboard v0.5.0 or view the source online.
Last release was almost 4 years ago and the repository with outstanding issues and pull requests seems to be abandoned by the maintainer.
In addition the sole maintainer account may be abandoned that may represent account takeover risk.
Current outstanding issues include vulnerable dependencies that all together may mean that security issues may not be addressed now or in the future.
