That error is really becoming annoying i had the same problem but the support team didn’t reply even a single dot on my request, even if you own the previous username vice-versa a lot of my friends having the same problem as this. |

it’s highly discouraged to change your username, as it is just like your identity that cannot be changed from time to time, it’s part of the URL so problems will surely arise |

Github Account Name : fulplan fulplan (FulPlan Mutasim) · GitHub** Actually, I recently changed my username from fulplan to a different name, and I also changed my special repo name on GitHub. After some days I started finding trouble as all because everywhere I used my previous username So I changed again to my previous one, but there is an error on GitHub Repository name. So I accidentally rename my special repository. Can you please fix this asap? Regards, Mutasim Abubakar |
