Body

i am a college student and currently use my college email with a personal email as a backup to host all of my project repositories. Since I am in third year currently, I may loose access to the college mail after graduation. I want that before that or after that, (whichever way works), all the repositories in my current account to be transferred to my other github account.

How can I do that?

Hi @ShubhMehrotra19 ,

There's a step-by-step guide in the docs, although you have to transfer each repo one by one instead of all of them at once.

• Transferring a repository owned by your personal account
