^{Originally posted by **kokare-darshan** December 14, 2023} Hi guys, Lets say I have a repo-A and I add it to project-manager. Now I fork repo-A and lets say its under folder "user-name/repo-A", how can I add new repository which has same name as earlier repo? I see that it updates same repo link today. tldr: I want 2 projects with same name.

Hi @kokare-darshan ,

On Favorite Projects (the ones you hit Save Project) yes, you can't have duplicates. The name works as its identifier, and if you try to reuse the name on another path it will ask you if you want to replace its path.

In order to have both projects, you must change the second one, maybe adding a prefix/suffix, so you will be able to have both
