Thanks, I updated the commit message in the repo:

   git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib rbt/github

commit 8b6d701aa812536dc5d4350d8a7646f54942ebac
Author: Robert Yang <liezhi.yang@windriver.com>
Date:   Tue Jul 28 03:00:37 2015 -0700

     meta: git://github.com -> ${GITHUB_GIT}

     It allows for people to add local mirrors for example and even remap
     fetching without touching the recipes.
