title: How to rename a PHP package in Packagist
body: <p>I changed a PHP package name in composer file from <code>"name": "author/author-php"</code> to <code>"name": "author/author"</code> then did <code>composer install</code> &amp; <code>composer update</code>, merged my changes with master then created a release. </p>
  
  <p>But after updating the library on Packagist, the new name did not work and composer could not find it at <code>composer require author/author</code> and I could not even download this new release.</p>
  
  <p>Note: the repo name is still <code>author-php</code> so is this the reason Packagist did not renamed it?</p>
