Your installation instructions say:
git clone https://github.com/your-username/secure-source-code-analyzer.git
Notice that it says "your-username" in that line. That mistake could cause an unsuspecting user to clone a repo that is a malicious clone of this one (should there ever be a user called "your-username") without them even realising it. On a repo that is addressing security issues, it is important that the repo itself appears free of security issues.
Even if that username isn't valid or allowed, making sure the line points to this exact repo avoids any potential risks coming from misspelling your username for instance.
It is your choice of course but as a developer myself, I always maintain that security and good practices should begin at home.
