Fork it to your account

Asked by Juerg Haefliger

I've created this git repo https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-concept/+git/ubuntu-iso-build but there is no 'Fork it to your account' link like - for example - here https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-concept/debian-cd/+git/debian-cd

Why?

The repo is forkable if one knows the secret URL: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-concept/+git/ubuntu-iso-build/+fork

Unfortunately, I cannot help with the why, as the commit message is not helpful, but it looks like this is intentional.

```
    def test_hide_fork_link_for_repos_targeting_person(self):
        person = self.factory.makePerson()
        another_person = self.factory.makePerson()
        repository = self.factory.makeGitRepository(target=person)
        browser = self.getViewBrowser(
            repository, "+index", user=another_person
        )
        self.assertDoesntContainForkLink(
            browser,
            repository,
            [
                "Fork it to your account",
                "Or click here to fork it to your account.",
            ],
        )
```

Well, I seems nobody remembers what the rational is.
