So this is more a problem for repos that have lived a long time already on github?It guess it should impede someone using their account as a staging point for migrating from Smalltalkhub projects to a community github repo.
Although an alternate way to consider this is that the forwarding submerges a problem to be forgotten until it causes a mystery problem later on.
Forking the repo back into your account and deleting the "master" branch might be fail-fast way to expose and fix��issues.
(emphasis on the "might" - I'm not sure of all the trade-offs)

Well, you can but then the access is not forwarded anymore to the repo you���ve transferred. Transferring and forking makes everyone link something they maybe don���t want. Transferring and creating a new one with the same name brings all request to the former to your new repo which is unlikely to be wanted.
