The readme gives an example usage of CompareCoverageAction:
[$class: 'CompareCoverageAction', scmVars: [GIT_URL: env.GIT_URL]]
The git url is passed to the function here. Looking at the source code, it seems that this argument is what is used to get the repo. The git url ( env.GIT_URL) is what is used.
So then, when it fails, why does the error message say that it is because of the 'GitHub project' field in job configuration?
java.io.IOException: Could not retrieve GitHub repository named {Organization}/{Repo} (Do you have properly set 'GitHub project' field in job configuration?)

19:36:04 at com.github.terma.jenkins.githubprcoveragestatus.CompareCoverageAction.perform(CompareCoverageAction.java:137)
This error is misleading and just incorrect.
Please fix the error message to state that the url may come from the argument, something a little more like:
java.io.IOException: Could not retrieve GitHub repository named {Organization}/{Repo} (Did you properly pass in the correct git url argument?)
