There is 600 forks on github.
- ericpruitt 5y agoHow many of these 600 forks have unique code i.e. aren't just snapshots of the canonical repository? A lot of people use the fork button as a way of bookmarking or mirroring in case the canonical repo disappears.
- da39a3ee 5y agoThat's because Github, in their early days, got very confused about what forking was and made banners saying "Fork me on Github" when what they actually meant to say was "Star me on Github".
