Hey, I think the solution is good. May I also suggest that we take advantage of Github's repository description field to indicate that the repositories are read-only mirrors. A quick glance at https://github.com/GNOME repositories shows that https://github.com/GNOME/evolution-data-server comes closest to what I mean. I'm sure even that description message can be improved.
