Specifying a GitHub account ensures that you automatically:
- get invited to the @NixOS/nixpkgs-maintainers team ;
- once you are part of the @NixOS org, OfBorg will request you review
pull requests that modify a package for which you are a maintainer.
`handle == forgejo` is strongly preferred whenever `forgejo` is an acceptable attribute name and is short and convenient.
`handle == github` is strongly preferred whenever `github` is an acceptable attribute name and is short and convenient.
If `forgejo` begins with a numeral, `handle` should be prefixed with an underscore.
```nix
_1example = {
forgejo = "1example";
};
```
If `github` begins with a numeral, `handle` should be prefixed with an underscore.
```nix
_1example = {
github = "1example";
};
```
