Expand Up @@ -46,9 +46,10 @@ Forking a repository is similar to duplicating a repository, with the following
* Code pushed to a fork is visible to all repositories in the fork network, even after that fork is deleted.
* You can use a pull request to suggest changes from your fork to the upstream repository.
* You can bring changes from the upstream repository to your fork by synchronizing your fork with the upstream repository.
* Forks have their own members, branches, tags, labels, policies, issues, pull requests, discussions, actions, projects, and wikis.
* Forks inherit the restrictions of their upstream repositories. For example, branch protection rules cannot be passed down if the upstream repository belongs to an organization on a {% data variables.product.prodname_free_team %} plan.

Like duplicated repositories, forks have their own members, branches, tags, labels, policies, issues, pull requests, discussions, actions, projects, and wikis.
