Help on phorkie

Remote forking

Phorkie allows cloning/forking of pastes on other servers - other phorkie instances, github gists or simply any remote git repository.

You can go to fork-remote and enter the URL of the paste on the other server.

It's way easier to simply click a "fork" button that automatically takes you to this phorkie's remote paste page, prefilled with the correct git URL.

To make this work, click the register button on the right. It will register a "protocol handler" for "web+fork:"-URLs, making phorkie chime in whenever a web+fork URL is clicked.

register web+fork protocol handler

Setup check

You need to activate public clone URLs in your config file. Otherwise forking onto remote systems will not work.

{% if publicGitUrl %}
OK! A public git URL prefix is configured: {{publicGitUrl}}
{% else %}
Error! No public git URL prefix configured.
{% endif %} {% endblock %}
