Description

It looks like the feature introduced in #342 to allow getting user/org stats from GitHub (when the repo_url in mkdosc.yml is a user/organization URL rather than a repo URL) is not working anymore.

With this in mkdocs.yml:

repo_url:  https://github.com/orgname

the requested API URL (captured in the browser's Developer Tools) is https://api.github.com/repos/orgname instead of https://api.github.com/users/orgname.

Expected behaviour

GitHub user/org stats are fetched from https://api.github.com/users/name

Actual behaviour

GitHub user/org stats are fetched from https://api.github.com/repos/name

Steps to reproduce

1. Set a user or organization URL as repo_url in mkdocs.yml
2. render the pages
3. no GitHub stats are provided

Package versions

• Python: 3.9.7

• Material: 7.3.0

Configuration

repo_url:  https://github.com/orgname

System information

• Operating system: Linux

Thanks for reporting. Fixed in ef0979f.

It's a regression since 7.1.0, as it broke 6 months ago when the merge related to the 'Black Pearl' funding goal was done.
