There is the github URL parameter (link below). It could be used to express 
the relationship to the github repo when the Git SCM URI is a mirror.

The logic when interacting with github would look like:

1. Try to parse the github information from the Git SCM URI (as it 
currently does).
2. If that fails, then try to use the github.projectUrl.
3. If that fails, stop.

Does that seem like a reasonable solution?
