 * Hi,
    I have successfully got this plug-in working for a public test repository.
   Is there any way it will work for a private repository? Or am I doing something
   else wrong?
 * My university has made an organization on GitHub and set up the repository for
   my team.
    It does have an initial README commit file.
 * Please reply as soon as you can,
    thank you so much, Emily

 * Hi never mind I have solved this now! Had to use the organizations name.
 * My question now is: Would it be possible to do this to different branches or 
   changing the name of the folder that the code goes to?
    We all use different 
   ports during this development phase of the WordPress website. Apart from that
   congrats seems really great! Thank you again, Emily

 * Different branches are feasible. You can use a filter.
