English term or phrase: on thesource
I can't understand the meaning of the words "on thesource" which I think it's a typo. If it's a typo, I still don't know what they mean by "the source"... would it be "the file"? Does anyone have any idea what this means in the context below? thanks!

Explanation:
Source is shorthand for "source directory" in IT, up to you whether you translate the word "source"

For example: 'Back to Source Directory' -=> 'Volta para o diretório do arquivo fonte',

Explanation:
Sugestão. Uma vez que "Source" tem maiúscula inicial, creio tratar-se do nome de uma pasta ou directório que contém dados.
