Subject: [PATCH] The forge watches every repository, not the administrator's
 own
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

/user/repos lists what the token's user owns, which for the mesh's administrator is nothing — so
the forge module watched an empty list and never announced a merge. It reads the forge's whole
view through the search endpoint, every page.
