How do you fork a repo from github?

    is that part of Gitea’s functionality?
    manual way would of course be to clone the repo to your local machine and then push it to gitea
    but is there anything in Gitea that claims to allow something like this to be done server-side or in a more automated way?

      Could I just migrate a repo from github to gitea? Not a fork but is essentially a fork by copying and pasting the repo from github to gitea.

      Maybe there is no way. If I was to clone a repo to my local machine and push it to gitea, will it show on gitea that it was forked from a github repo, or will I have to put in the readme that it was forked from this github repo?
