GitHub support can (and currently is) restore all of that. The fork network should already be fixed for Elasticsearch again [I work for Elastic]

  Good to know. There was a similarly popular project that didn't get this benefit (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31033758 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31033758).

    8 years ago someone accidentally deleted the elasticsearch repository (thinking it was their private fork ). Back then everything was restored, so I hope we get there again this time too

      I hope so too. I'm the maintainer of a reasonably popular project (~9K stars) and it's certainly a nightmare scenario given that I consider the stars to give it credibility in a crowded space.
