NAME

+

+ git-fork - Fork a repo on github +

+ +

SYNOPSIS

+ +

git-fork [<github-repo-url>]

+ +

DESCRIPTION

+ +

If a github repo url is given, fork the repo. Like clone but forks first.

+ +
    +
  1. forks the repo on github
    2. +
  2. clones the repo into the current dir
    3. +
  3. adds the original repo as a remote called upstream
    4. +
+ + +

If a url is not given and the current dir is a github repo, fork the repo.

+ +
    +
  1. forks the current repo
    2. +
  2. rename the origin remote repo to upstream
    3. +
  3. adds the forked repo as a remote called origin
    4. +
+ + +

EXAMPLE

+ +

Fork expect.js:

+ +
$ git fork https://github.com/LearnBoost/expect.js
+
+ +

or just:

+ +
$ git fork LearnBoost/expect.js
+
+ +

Then:

+ +
$ ..<forks into your github profile and clones repo locally to expect.js dir>...
+
+$ cd expect.js && git remote -v
+
+  origin          https://github.com/<user>/expect.js (fetch)
+  origin          https://github.com/<user>/expect.js (push)
+  upstream        https://github.com/LearnBoost/expect.js (fetch)
+  upstream        https://github.com/LearnBoost/expect.js (push)
+
+ +

If the current dir is a clone of expect.js, this has the same effect:

+ +
$ git fork
+
+ +
