Description

These fields don't necessarily make as much sense if you're publishing to an internal registry where there isn't the same need for discoverability as there is on crates.io.

Research direction

The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Start by reproducing a publish to a custom registry and locate the missing description, repository, and related warnings; done means those warnings are suppressed for custom registries while remaining available where discoverability metadata is expected.
