I have started collaborating on a series of projects with several developers on github, and we recently created an organization with it's own "organization" type account on github. I see that I can fork repositories of my collaborators into the organization account using the usual fork menu, but of course I cannot fork my own account.
What is the expected workflow to import my existing repositories into the organizational account? (I presume I could fork projects hosted by the other members, but not my own?)
In the updated github UI all you need to do is go to your project and click "Fork" and then it will ask you if you want to fork into an organization that you are an admin of. Way simple, just not easy to find.
Open GitHub, using "Transfer" under "Settings" for the repository you want to move.. enter the repository name you want to add to your organization.
In GitHub, you can create project boards to manage your repository. With this, you can put all your notes and tasks (issues and pull requests) in a single place. To create a project board, go to your repository. After that, go to the Projects Tab then click Create a project like how it is shown above.
Settings
tab of your repository:Danger Zone
and click Transfer
:I understand, transfer this repository
