[JIRA] (OVIRT-2643) make the github headers a little more user friendly for our gerrit -> github synced projects

I'm not sure we have control over it, the sync from Gerrit to GitHub is done via the Gerrit mirror plugin. Is it possible its related to the GitHub project description? if so, each project maintainer can update it on GitHub AFAIK. I think the simplest way to search for your mirror is to go to https://github.com/oVirt and then search for repository under the repositories list, Its quite easy and straightforward.
