GH pages website broken

[cgwalters]

Github does redirects when accessing the main repo, but not for Github Pages.

We need to execute on something like https://dev.to/steveblue/setup-a-redirect-on-github-pages-1ok7

Hmm digging at this more I'm not sure much has changed since this 10 year old issue: isaacs/github#492

The core problem is that while we could add a HTTP redirect for the Github Pages site, the only implementation of that is to create a stub git repository to do so, which breaks the redirect for e.g. git clone https://github.com/containers/bootc ...

So for the immediate term I think I lean to just update consuming sites

@cgwalters Git's submodules might work for this case if the redirection doesn't work. I think I did one in the past. The pages code can be kept in the new org/repo but the pages will still be managed from containers org. Would you go with sth like this? I will find you an example I implemented in the past.

here it is:

The website code is located here: https://github.com/SystemCraftsman/strimzi-kafka-cli/blob/main/website/index.html
But the website is broadcasted from here: https://github.com/strimzi-cli/strimzi-cli.github.io

https://strimzi-cli.github.io/

Not as good as redirection but at least sth that works. For your consideration.
