Proposal to change GitHub project name and URL

[bug-or-feature]

I propose to change the name of this GitHub project to trading-ig. The current name is too long, too hard to say, too hard to remember and too hard to type. trading-ig is already the name of the released project on the Python package index.

If we proceed, the URL of the project would become:

https://github.com/ig-python/trading-ig

In my experience, GitHub handles redirection pretty efficiently. Their docs

One downside is that developers would have to adjust their git remotes in their local environment. Personally I don't think that is too much effort.

Any thoughts, concerns?

It's a good idea, I always figured the name was different from pypi due to specific technical reasons with Github.

Not much response, so assuming all happy. Done now. I'd suggest renaming your forks too, it would be confusing otherwise. And rename any remotes as necessary. See
