Unable to get active forks of forked projects #60

Closed iAmG-r00t closed 3 years ago

iAmG-r00t commented 3 years ago

So I wanted to see who forked a project of a user who had previously forked the project.

WHY? because I am using this tool to check if a project has a fork that is being updated and the user hasn't merged the updates to the main project.

You can give it a try with a project I forked from a forked project. From your tool I can't see myself as a fork from the main project but when I try to see active forks of the forked project I forked I get an error.

Main Project: https://github.com/ernw/nmap-parse-output Forked Project I forked: https://github.com/JakeSamu/nmap-parse-output My Fork: https://github.com/iAmG-r00t/nmap-parse-output

The weird thing is when I updated the repo, the active repo site says the Forked Project is the one that is active see below screenshot while I can't see my fork from the site 😄

Hey seems like I hadn't see that the issue had been raise #31, will be closing this issue.
