.. _forking:
======================================================
Making your own copy (fork) of scikit-image
======================================================
You need to do this only once. The instructions here are very similar
to the instructions at https://help.github.com/en/github/getting-started-with-github/fork-a-repo |emdash|
please see that page for more detail. We're repeating some of it here just to give
the specifics for the `scikit-image`_ project, and to suggest some default names.
Set up and configure a github account
=====================================
If you don't have a github account, go to the github page, and make one.
You then need to configure your account to allow write access |emdash| see
the ``Generating SSH keys`` help on `github help`_.
Create your own forked copy of `scikit-image`_
======================================================
#. Log into your github account.
#. Go to the `scikit-image`_ github home at `scikit-image github`_.
#. Click on the *fork* button:

Now, after a short pause and some 'Hardcore forking action', you
should find yourself at the home page for your own forked copy of `scikit-image`_.
