How do you know if someone using a font in their github repo paid for it or not?


Because it is very extremely unlikely that the font license the font purchaser paid for allows them to distribute it to the public.

I could see this happening in a repo by Google/MS/FB/etc., but it probably would be extremely expensive for them. Any other instance of this sort of sharing is unlikely enough that it can be assumed to be illegitimate.
