Su Jun-Ming => Happy Web Developer: The word "fork" originates from UNIX. It means to create a copy. In the UNIX context, fork refers to creating a copy of the parent process. On github, it means to make a copy of a repository. So, when you fork a repository, github makes a separate copy for you, independent of the original repository. #5a13fddc8616ce3e622cc20c
