Migrating to Organization Repo

Open hunterowens opened this issue 11 years ago • 8 comments

So, basically, shit got crazy- this project now has [as of this writing] 432 stars and 108 forks.

In order to keep up participation on open source taco related projects (ie, issue #94), we should probably consolidate all taco related repos into one organization.

@evz / @meetar.

I believe @santheo has created a tacofancy organization.

What's the cleanest way of doing this? Transfer ownership of the projects?

This is far, far outside my Github knowledge.

Transfer ownership or fork into the organization are the two options. 1 is better.

Let the organisation fork-it, and post a note of the change on the read-me . nice, clean, standard

problem with forking into the organization is that this URL is out there if we transfer vs fork it will redirect, right?

Github redirects old repo url to new repo url when a repo is transferred.

I like the idea of transferring. However, looks like whoever owns the repo has to have admin access to the org: https://help.github.com/articles/how-to-transfer-a-repository

Who started the org? @santheo?
