The original plugin is located at https://github.com/thomasgriffin/TGM-Plugin-Activation, _(*2)

Rewriting

The plugin was rewritten for better code management/styling and to better integrate with composer., _(*3)

The usage of Composer and namespaces is not The Wordpress Way so this was never meant to be merged into the official plugin., _(*4)
