GitHub has introduced a feature that automatically redirects all requests to previous repository locations when a repository name is changed, a user or organization account is renamed, or a repository is transferred to a different user or organization. This enhancement ensures seamless continuity for Git clone, fetch, and push requests without requiring any additional actions from users. However, it's important to note that GitHub Pages sites are not included in this redirect support, meaning that renaming a Pages repository will still disrupt existing links to content hosted on the github.io domain or custom domains.
