What is a fork and how do I fork a repository on GitHub?
A fork is a copy of a repository on GitHub that you can use to make changes to the code without affecting the original repository. When you fork a repository, you create a new repository on your GitHub account that is linked to the original repository.
To fork a repository on GitHub, follow these steps:
- Go to the repository you want to fork on GitHub.
- Click on the "Fork" button in the top right corner of the page.
- Choose the account or organization where you want to fork the repository to.
- Wait for GitHub to create the forked repository on your account.
