Migration to organization

Open Neustradamus opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Dear @HelloZeroNet team,

It is possible to migrate the personal account to organization?

Your project can not have a personal account but an organization and it is free.

You must to respect GitHub TOS:

  • https://docs.github.com/en/site-policy/github-terms/github-terms-of-service#3-account-requirements

You have two possibilities:

  • Converting
  • Rename / Create an organization / Transfer repositories (no lost, redirections are here)

Important to know, there is no lost, and GitHub adds redirections after a transfer, for example:

  • https://github.com/libreswan has been converted
  • https://github.com/exiftool has been converted
  • https://github.com/redorescue has been converted
  • https://github.com/nerzhul/ocsms -> https://github.com/nextcloud/ocsms
  • https://github.com/tigaseinc/tigase-server -> https://github.com/tigase/tigase-server
  • https://github.com/boothj5/profanity -> https://github.com/profanity-im/profanity
  • https://github.com/asciimoo/searx -> https://github.com/searx/searx

Thanks in advance.


Converting:

  • https://help.github.com/articles/converting-a-user-into-an-organization/

It is possible to rename this account and create the organization and move/transfer the repository to the organization.

Rename account:

  • https://docs.github.com/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-personal-account-on-github/managing-user-account-settings/changing-your-github-username

Create an organization:

  • https://help.github.com/en/github/setting-up-and-managing-organizations-and-teams/creating-a-new-organization-from-scratch

Transfer a repository:

  • https://help.github.com/en/github/administering-a-repository/transferring-a-repository

Like:

  • http://github.com/gnome
  • http://github.com/kde
  • ...

@Neustradamus there's no "ZeroNet team", the only developer who had access to HelloZeroNet account hasn't been online for many years. all recent development is handled in fork(s)
