All existing information should automatically be redirected to the new name.
Contributors are encouraged, however, to update local clones to point to the new URL, i.e.,
git remote set-url origin https://github.com/Burke-Lauenroth-Lab/rSFSW2.git
If using GitHub Desktop you may want to remove existing clones, update the local clones via command line, re-start GitHub Desktop and add a new clone of the updated repository.
