 * Transfer a repository

 * A transfer request will need to be accepted by the new owner when transferring a personal repository to another user. The response will contain the original `owner`, and the transfer will continue asynchronously. For more details on the requirements to transfer personal and organization-owned repositories, see [about repository transfers](https://docs.github.com/articles/about-repository-transfers/).
