Answer 1

don't know what to do next

You can start by reading the readme . This is the first place to look if the question arose "how to build/install/run this":
Clone this repository:

$ git clone --recursive -b 2.6.0 https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/taskwarrior.git
$ cd taskwarrior

Thenbuild:

$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release .
...
$ make
...
[$ make test]
...
$ sudo make install

Answer 2

Change to the cloned directory. makepkg -si
Everything is in it .
PS Of course, run as root or with sudo.
Yes, and in fact it is in the official turnips, just called timewarrior

Answer 3

Run the executable or make install. Otherwise find the version for manjaro.
