How can one include packages from http://contrib.texlive.info for installation through TeXLive Utility? (Just temporarily change the repository to http://contrib.texlive.info/current tlcontrib ?)

If so, I presume that will install packages from contrib.texlive.info into the main TeXLive tree (inside /usr/local/texlive/2020)

Should one really be putting packages from contrib.texlive.info into the main TeXLive tree, or would it be better to put them in the local texmf tree (on my system, ~/Library/texmf)?
