GitHub Fork
Software Development and Engineering Practices
A GitHub Fork is a personal copy of someone else's repository that a user creates under their own account, allowing them to freely experiment with or modify the code without affecting the original project. Forking is commonly used in open-source contribution workflows, where a developer forks a repo, makes changes, and then submits those changes back via a pull request. It's a foundational concept for anyone contributing to collaborative or open-source software.
