I didn't find any reference on this. But since the repository field value from package.json is used as a link in Atom (package page, "Create issue" link), the protocol should be http:// or http://. git-grep for example uses git://github.com/mizchi/atom-git-grep which leads to not working links in Atom.
The protocol of repository should be validated when packages are uploaded to the packages repository.
