Hi!

Did you know that a deleted Github repository is recoverable[1] along
with all its issues and PRs? I didn't.

It has been useful for recovering and transferring two open
issues[2][3] in a YaST repository destroyed ~3 months ago. Not before
making sure all its forks were removed too because, at the time of
writing, a repo can't be restored if there is any fork alive.

Honestly, those issues weren't that relevant/helpful, but I couldn't
resist trying to restore them.

Thanks to Imobach, Áncor, and Iván for helping me to please my
curiosity :) :)
