For what it's worth, when I was playing around, importing the
source from FedoraHosted to >GitHub was exceedingly trivial. It took just minutes.
IIRC, I refreshed my local repo, reset my remote origin URL in .git/config to GitHub, and

Current commiters would need to do the same. Once the URL was updated everything just

If your >GitHub EMail matches the one for prior commits, everything syncs up.
I can confirm this, I copied the official FedoraHosted repo to my Github account while
doing some initial work on a new profile project. In doing so, it picked up all the
commit history, release, branches, tags, and contributors. You can tell who of the
committers already has GitHub accounts by the contributor list.
It was as simple as Shawn mentioned, I cloned from FH to local then pushed from local to a
new repo @ Github.
https://github.com/nzwulfin/scap-security-guide is the GitHub repo in question (very old,
no warrantees)
