We are working on a project where we need to display all the projects of a person in his repository on GitHub account.

Can anyone suggest, how can I display the names of all the git repositories of a particular person using his git-user name?

You can use the github api for this. Hitting https://api.github.com/users/USERNAME/repos will list public repositories for the user USERNAME.
