Can/should I fork my own github repo?

Question

My github repo is called Programming-iOS-4-Book-Examples, because it\'s the example code from my book \"Programming iOS 4\". Now I\'ve written a new edition of the book, retitle

Answer 1

I know this is old but I faced the same issue recently. What did work for me was the following:

1. Create a new_repo at github
2. git clone new_repo
3. cd new_repo
4. git remote add upstream old_repo.git
5. git pull upstream master
6. git push origin master

I got all the above from here.
