GitHub integration - new releases don't carry over information form previous releases #1291
Description
Hello,
My team is using Zenodo to generate DOI#'s for some of our GitHub repos. Unfortunately, we discovered that when we create a new release, the new entry (new DOI) does not copy over the values from the previous release, such as author, copyright, repository URL, etc. This is very, very annoying, as we have to fill out all the information every time there is a new release, which kind of negates the benefit of connecting GitHub to Zenodo. We might as well create each DOI manually.
It would be ideal - and extremely helpful - if all the custom information associated with a github release was automatically copied over to new releases. Or at the very least, the authors, repo URL, and publisher.
