git - Unfork a Github fork without deleting -
i "unfork" github fork without deleting + recreating it. possible?
my reason project has different use source of fork, , makes no sense showing number of commits ahead, or pull request button (or @ least, such prominence). hindsight, think have git clone
d original, rather made fork.
i not delete fork in order keep issues + history of pull requests made.
i happy keep history of commits, it's removal of fork status i'm after.
i remember reading year ago in 1 of github's pages. mentioned contact github staff explaining situation. staff needful.
edit
after browsing through github pages list, see bit off actual task. page remembered transferring repository; in particular:
if transferred repository has forks, forks associated new repository after transfer complete. keep in mind users have forked repository need update remote urls point new git repository in order continue opening pull requests.
it still worth contact staff particular issue , ask them separate fork network.
