which refs file at vendor/spatie/laravel-permission/src/Models/Permission.php

Have to copy this file under app/Models/ directory and edit it as usual file and refer it as

app\Models\Permission.php

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Spatie\Permission\Models\Permission as Model;

class Permission extends Model
{
    //
}

And then in controller import your Permission model.

use App\Models\Permission;

Thanks!. Does it mean that app\Models\Permission.php inherited all from Spatie\Permission\Models\Permission ?
