@chaitanyagiri looks like Michael moved the office, but a few boxes still have the old shipping address 😄 I checked the repo after the transfer, and there's a small migration detail worth catching The [current README](https://github.com/HarnessMD/munder-difflin/blob/main/README.md) still references GitHub's redirects should handle the GitHub-hosted links, so there's no reason to assume those are broken The interesting part is what happens outside GitHub Services consuming A quick sweep would catch the obvious references: git grep -nF 'chaitanyagiri/munder-difflin'I'd update the public-facing ones even where the redirect works. New contributors shouldn't have to learn the previous address just to clone the current project There's also a less obvious detail in [GitHub's repository transfer documentation](https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/creating-and-managing-repositories/transferring-a-repository) When a repository moves from a personal account to an organization, issue assignments to users outside the receiving organization are cleared So the issues survive the move, but some of their assigned owners might quietly disappear For a project with an active contributor queue, that's worth a quick audit One last thought about your reason for moving: reducing dependence on a single login GitHub [recommends having at least two organization owners](https://docs.github.com/en/organizations/managing-peoples-access-to-your-organization-with-roles/maintaining-ownership-continuity-for-your-organization), precisely because an organization with one owner still has a single-account recovery problem I don't know how HarnessMD's ownership is configured, but I'd include that in the migration checklist too Funny thing about moving an agent-powered office: Git can forward the mail automatically, but someone still has to check who has the keys to the building 😅 |
Uh oh!

Munder Difflin's repo moved today, from
chaitanyagiri/munder-difflintoHarnessMD/munder-difflin.New address: https://github.com/HarnessMD/munder-difflin
Why
The project now sits under an organization instead of my personal account, so it is no longer tied to one login.
What stays the same
What you may want to do
Git follows the redirect, so nothing is broken. This is tidying.
If you have a clone of this repo, point it at the new address:
If you work from a fork, your fork's address did not change. Update only the remote that points at this repo, often called
upstream:If something broke
If a link, a badge or a workflow of yours stopped working because of the move, reply here and say what you see.
