Feature Request

(transferring/merging Achievements between GitHub accounts): When I have multiple GitHub accounts, I cannot transfer or merge achievements (badges) from one account to another.

Current Situation

• Achievements are tied to a single account only
• There is no way to transfer or merge them
• If I switch to a new account, I lose all previous achievements

Proposed Solution

1. Allow linking multiple accounts (Account Linking)
2. Or provide a tool to merge accounts and transfer achievements

Benefits

• Helps users who want to switch to a new account
• Useful in cases of account consolidation or reorganization

Additional Context

I contribute to important projects such as frappe/erpnext, and I would like to retain my achievement history if I change my primary account.
