I personally have the opposite preference. The home page gives an overview and a link to the repository. The repository has no overview or easy-to-find link to the home page. Therefore I'd almost always perfer a link to the project home page to get an idea. For 9 out of 10 projects I wouldn't download the code anyway.

But who are we to impose our preferences on another poster?
