Repository redirects are coming to API v3 in July

Last month, we announced the upcoming repository redirect behavior for the API, and we made it available for developers to preview. Starting July 21, 2015, the API will automatically provide these redirects for all API consumers.

To learn more about repository redirects and how they will benefit your applications, be sure to check out the original announcement.

To start enjoying repository redirects right away, just provide the following custom media type in the Accept header:

application/vnd.github.quicksilver-preview+json

Thanks to everyone that tried out this enhancement during the preview period.

As always, if you have any questions, please get in touch. We love hearing from you.
