To show forks in repository search results, add fork:true or fork:only to your query. For more information, see "Searching for repositories."
Note: Forks can only be included in repository and code searches.
The fork:true qualifier finds all results that match your search query, including forks. The fork:only qualifier finds only forks that match your search query.
| Qualifier | Example |
|---|---|
fork:true | github fork:true matches all repositories containing the word "github," including forks. |
language:LANGUAGE fork:true | android language:java fork:true matches code with the word "android" that's written in Java, in both forks and regular repositories. |
fork:only | github fork:only matches all fork repositories containing the word "github." |
forks:>n fork:only | forks:>500 fork:only matches repositories with more than 500 forks, and only returns those that are forks. |
