brew create fails to fetch description if name doesn't match URL

brew doctor output

Your system is ready to brew.                                                   /4,3s

Verification

• My "brew doctor output" above says Your system is ready to brew. and am still able to reproduce my issue.
• I ran brew update twice and am still able to reproduce my issue.
• This issue's title and/or description do not reference a single formula e.g. brew install wget. If they do, open an issue at https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/new/choose instead.

What were you trying to do (and why)?

Create new formula.

What happened (include all command output)?

brew create fails to fetch formula description. Name is set manually and doesn't match URL.

The formula name of https://github.com/observablehq/framework would be manually set to "observable".

But here

brew/Library/Homebrew/formula_creator.rb

Line 86 in 57ff9bc

metadata = GitHub.repository(@user, @name)

the new name is used to read repository data, and fails to read.

The solution is to init GitHub object from URL.

What did you expect to happen?

Fetch description successfully.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions (by running brew commands)

brew create https://github.com/observablehq/framework/archive/refs/tags/v1.0.0.tar.gz --node --set-name=observable
