jdk/jdk repository transition to Git, GitHub and Skara is done

[Robert Lu]

Hi,
Thanks for supporting git.

I tried to open a PR(https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/104), but I have
two questions:
1. I signed OCA as `Robert Lu`, which is different with my GitHub name. so
The bot marked my as oca-verify. How could I associate my GitHub name with
the name in OCA list?
2. the bot will add `Progress` section for PR, but the format is(all in one
line):
--------- ### Progress - [x] Change must not contain extraneous whitespace
- [ ] Commit message must refer to an issue - [ ] Change must be properly
reviewed
It looks like the bot post markdown in the wrong format, please fix this.
