In Github, forking is a concept of making a copy of the main repository or directoy to your account so that you can make modifications in it. This post will show you how to fork a directory from another Github profile (main repository) to your Github account.
Open your Github, visit the profile and repository your want to fork, on the repository page, locate ‘fork’ on the right side of the page as shown below, click on the arrow down and click on ‘create a new fork’
In the next page that will open, input a repository name (Github will check for the name availability because every repository on Github has a unique URL) and repository description (optional) and click on ‘Create fork’
Every GitHub repository has a unique URL (github.com/user/repositoryName)
