Inspired by jdx/gh#30
Request:
"Clone with all forks added as remotes, and to be able to update this when new forks are created."

I think this is a great idea and have heard others struggle updating forks when its fairly simple. But an app could make it way easier for the average user. 👍

Updating forks to the parent project is outside of the scope of this project at the moment but in this project I can update the remotes based on the forks of a repository.

I may end up creating another repository that completes this task because I have met others with the need to easily update forks to the parent repo. If I develop and release that project the link to that repo will be included here: 'not currently implemented' in this issue.

If you want to quickly clone projects checkout https://github.com/jdxcode/gh/
If you want to look at star information for you git project checkout https://github.com/hoop33/limo

This could be implemented in two ways:

  1. Update flag, could get all of your remotes and with origin alias. example below:
    (Only one api request is used.)
git remote add origin/newbranch https://github.com/MichaelDimmitt/a-quick-js-excercise.git
  1. Reveal could make an api request each time. (not as much fun.)
