Your link has the link to build instructions https://github.com/EionRobb/skype4pidgin/tree/master/skypeweb#building-deb-package-for-debianubuntumint

In particular, the instructions mention obtaining the source code with "git clone git://github.com/EionRobb/skype4pidgin.git && cd skype4pidgin/skypeweb". (that said, I'm not sure, perhaps it's enough to just do "git clone https://github.com/EionRobb/skype4pidgin/tree/master/skypeweb")
