What happens to GHCR packages when you transfer a personal github repo to an organization?

Body

I'm the developer of this repository, and I'm planning to transfer it from my personal account to an organization. The repository’s GHCR Docker package has over 500,000 downloads, so I want to make sure the migration doesn’t break anything.

In a previous case, when I moved another project to an organization, its associated package was removed. Before I proceed, I’d like to confirm: is it possible to transfer a repository from a personal account to an organization without losing its associated GHCR package?

For example, is there any way to redirect the existing image path
ghcr.io/lukegus/termix
to the new organization path
ghcr.io/karmaas-software/termix?

It would be a huge inconvenience for the community if users had to manually update their Docker Compose files to point to the new image.
