That sounds very reasonable. I'm gonna try this. Hopefully new repos will still be visible as forks?!
I think this feature is very much useful. When I "use this template" (instead of a fork), the new repo is not shown in the list of forks. Currently I use the list of forks to discover new repos and keep track of them... :-/
In this example, https://github.com/johanneshoppe/test is not shown here.
This allows other users to easily create a deploy tool from the existing code. See this help article for more info on template repositories.
Once the repository is marked as a template, a "Use this template" button will be shown above the file list. See this help article for more info.
