Author seeks advice on anonymizing GitHub repositories when submitting AI/ML papers to conferences.

Hi everyone, I have a question about anonymizing code for **conference submissions**. I’m submitting an AI/ML paper to a conference and would like to **include the code**, but the repository **needs to be anonymized**. In this situation, is it common to c**reate a separate anonymous GitHub account**, upload the code there, and then, **if the paper is accepted, move it to your official GitHub account later?** I’d really appreciate any guidance. Thanks!
