Info on `mkfs.exfat` is misleading

There are (at least) 2 sources for mkfs.exfat program:

1. https://github.com/exfatprogs/exfatprogs
2. https://github.com/relan/exfat

The current version

# mkfs.exfat
# Creates an exfat filesystem inside a partition.
# More information: <https://manned.org/mkfs.exfat>.

# Create an exfat filesystem inside partition 1 on device b (`sdb1`):
mkfs.exfat /dev/sdb1

# Create filesystem with a volume-name:
mkfs.exfat -n volume_name /dev/sdb1

# Create filesystem with a volume-id:
mkfs.exfat -i volume_id /dev/sdb1

is adapted for relan/exfat version.

If it was adapted for exfatprogs/exfatprogs version, it would differ:

# mkfs.exfat
# Creates an exfat filesystem inside a partition.
# More information: <https://man.archlinux.org/man/mkfs.exfat.8>. (or other manpage website?)

# Create an exfat filesystem inside partition 1 on device b (`sdb1`):
mkfs.exfat /dev/sdb1

# Create filesystem with a volume-label:
mkfs.exfat -L volume_label /dev/sdb1

# Create filesystem with a volume-guid: (i think this one performs different thing compared to the other version with -i volume_id flag)
mkfs.exfat -U volume_guid /dev/sdb1

Server doesn't show where this cheat sheet comes from. Need to trace it manually.

Which one is correct and why?

Oh, yes...

Which one is correct and why?

I think i've misunderstood your question.
You are referring to my "relan/exfat vs exfatprogs/exfatprogs" examples above?

https://pkgstats.archlinux.de/compare/packages#packages=exfat-utils,exfatprogs tells us that exfatprogs/exfatprogs is twice as popular as relan/exfat on Arch systems, though github stars shows us that exfatprogs/exfatprogs has 3.5x times fewer stars compared to relan/exfat.

I went ahead and searched package indexes for Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian
They only show exfatprogs/exfatprogs in search results (i.e. seems like there is simply no relan/exfat in repos for most distros.
https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=exfat&searchon=names&suite=questing&section=all
https://packages.fedoraproject.org/search?query=exfat

This also provides more stats:
https://repology.org/project/exfatprogs/versions
https://repology.org/project/exfat-utils/versions
can see that exfatprogs/exfatprogs is much more common. this is (for some reason i don't remember) what i use on my machine, hence this issue was opened when i discovered incompatibility.

To sum up (if i understood your question correctly), the current https://cht.sh/mkfs.exfat may be thought of as "incorrect" and would be more useful if it displayed examples for the exfatprogs/exfatprogs mkfs implementation.

https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr/blob/main/pages/linux/mkfs.exfat.md shows cheat sheet for exfatprogs/exfatprogs

The cht.sh server need to be patched to show information about original cheat sheet. It might be that the server database is just outdated.
