Is it possible to have 2 urls for a single Github repository

I was wondering if it's possible to have 2 Github urls that point to the same repository. The reason I want this is I posted a link to a repository somewhere where it is not possible to change my submission. Now I want to put the repository on my resume, but the repository name is so long that it won't fit on one line. I'd like to have a way to put it on my resume without breaking the original link.

The short answer is no: the GitHub URL is unique. Your options are:

  1. Work with the GitHub URL as-is (span multiple lines).
  2. If your résumé supports HTML, use an href.
  3. Fork the repository to your account, rename it with a shorter title, and put that in your résumé. Interested readers can click through the "forked from" link.
