Description
Sometimes it will be helpful to pull in all repositories of a github organisation.
For this purposes it would be good to support "/*" as a repo name. You would want to be able to combine it with other repos so that for example you could configure the repo list as: silverstripe/* symbiote/silverstripe-advancedworkflow
I would imagine that this could be implemented as a preprocessor that expanded such entries on the repo list before commencing. At the same time as implementing this, a de-duplication filter might also be of use.

Research direction
Start by tracing how the repo list configuration is parsed before GitHub API extraction begins. Determine how an organisation wildcard should expand, how it combines with explicit repositories, and how duplicate entries are handled. Done means the example configuration works and the expansion and de-duplication behavior is covered by tests.
