Now I am having this error for every repository I try to put there. I cannot create new backstroke links because every repository I put there, it says This repo does't exists.

Interesting - I never actually anticipated this case!

To get the branches for a given repository and to determine if the repository exists / doesn't exist, an api call is made. If you open up your browsers developer tools and look for that request, is the server returning an incorrect response? Though I suspect the server, as a first step, I'd like to see if the browser or the server is at fault.

Second, can you recreate this readily? I'd love to put together a couple scenarios in which the system currently doesn't work as expected.

Thanks!

Now it is working by itself. It seems it stopped working exactly on the moment I tried to put the fork of fork. Now I added and it is working. Also, I am not experienced with web development, is this the console you mentioned? I took I picture now I it working:
