did you look at the script, include_all.lua?
The header has:
  INCLUDE ALL
  Automatically include all scripts in the script repository



NOTE:  some attention to detail is required of YOU.

The *enabled* scripts will all be listed in ~/.config/darktable/luarc as
  require "contrib/autostyle"
  require "contrib/clear_GPS"
  require "contrib/copy_attach_detach_tags"

enables/activates scripts: autostyle.lua
                           clear_GPS.lua
                           copy_attach_tags.lua
