What does the sentence "The goal is to eventually have strong articles for every entry of this table, but initial efforts will target the first row and first column" mean? It's located on the *Resources* page (https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Resources).
<inquisitiv3>
Does is say that the primary focus is on the material for specifically NixOS, or should the "and" be replaced with an "or"?

Doesn't Github automatically add the user's forks as origin? Or do I remember it wrongly?
<cransom>
it does not afaik. any clone i've done only had the origin set as the thing i cloned from.
<samueldr>
maybe a github tool, but git itself doesn't know about github and forks
<inquisitiv3>
I'll check
<inquisitiv3>
Yeap. I forked Nixpkgs and cloned my fork. My personal repo is set as origin.
<inquisitiv3>
Should I remove the section I linked? The instructions is for forking Nixpkgs from Github.
<samueldr>
it's still a good idea to clone the nixpkgs and then add your fork as an origin, or vice-versa, clone your fork and add nixos/nixpkgs as an alternative origin
<samueldr>
otherwise, how do you sync up with upstream?
<inquisitiv3>
I upload my branch to my repo and create a PR from there_
<inquisitiv3>
?
<samueldr>
your master branch will fall behind the NixOS/nixpkgs's master branch
<inquisitiv3>
Yes, but then you'll have to just add the origin and pull the changes from there.
<samueldr>
yes
<samueldr>
that's the vice-versa bit I was talking about
<samueldr>
you need both remotes, either origin is upstream or your fork, it's not that important
<samueldr>
the page must have been written assuming git clone was already made using the upstream repo url
<inquisitiv3>
But if you read Github's own documentation they describe the fork-first workflow.
