@elduvelle I am genuinely confused. Why are you forking from that command line? What's the plan here? What is the next step for you if not cloning, making some changes, etc?

@jni Can you not make changes on the fork directly? Why would you need to clone it? (I'm really not expert in Git so probably missing something obvious)

@elduvelle Yes, you can make changes on a fork using the web UI. But then… wouldn't you be forking in the web UI in the first place, rather than on the command line?
