                    Yes. The anonymized repository tracks the source on GitHub: when you push new commits to the
                    original repository, the anonymized view picks up those changes (cached files are refreshed
                    against GitHub). This means you can keep iterating on the code while reviewers have the link,
                    and you do not need to recreate the anonymized repository every time you update the source.

                  <p>
                    A few practical implications worth keeping in mind:
                  </p>
                  <ul>
                    <li>
                      You can safely create the anonymized repository early in the writing process &mdash; later
                      commits will be visible to reviewers without any additional action.
                    </li>
                    <li>
                      If you rename files, add new identifiers, or introduce new contributor names after creation,
                      revisit the anonymization options (custom terms, file filters) to make sure the new content
                      is still properly anonymized.
                    </li>
                    <li>
                      If the original repository is made private or deleted, the anonymized repository will no
                      longer be able to fetch updated content.
                    </li>
                  </ul>
