[DataDalton]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. An additional setting which isn't currently supported in syncing that would be very useful to add

Describe the solution you'd like The ability to set alphanumeric/numeric, reference prefix, and target url

Describe alternatives you've considered There are no good alternatives

As far as I know, the current ability to do this has to be through the API, however, there might be a better option.

Here's a sample:

API_URL = "https://api.github.com"

def getAutolinks(repo, headers):
    """Fetch all autolinks for a repository."""
    url = f"{API_URL}/repos/{repo}/autolinks"
    response = requests.get(url, headers = headers)
    response.raise_for_status()
    return response.json()

def addAutolink(repo, key_prefix, url_template, headers, dry_run):
    """Add an autolink to a repository."""

    url = f"{API_URL}/repos/{repo}/autolinks"
    payload = {"key_prefix": key_prefix, "url_template": url_template}
    response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json=payload)
    if response.status_code == 201:
        print(f"Successfully added autolink to {repo}: Prefix={key_prefix}")
    elif response.status_code == 422:
        print(f"Autolink already exists in {repo}: Prefix={key_prefix}")
    else:
        print(f"Failed to add autolink to {repo}: Prefix={key_prefix}")
        print(f"Error: {response.status_code} - {response.text}")

As long as pygithub supports this api, then I am fine with a PR to add this feature. If not, it would need to get support in pygithub first.

It looks like it is supported, https://github.com/search?q=repo%3APyGithub%2FPyGithub%20autolinks&type=code
