- anonymousiam 1y agoCloning the repo isn't enough, because Microsoft/Github still control the platform, and can delete all copies they have control over.
- dceddia 1y agoCloning the repo (running git clone on your computer) is enough because it makes a local copy. Forking merely makes a copy under your account on GitHub though which is not going to survive if they go on a deleting spree.
- anonymousiam 1y agoYes, you are correct. I used the word "clone" when I should have used the word "fork" instead.
