       Have I told you how I hate fork model?Yes, I have (https://fosstodon.org/@bookwar/109886852200274681)As a release engineer of a large project with 3000 repositories, i am a drive-by contributor to many of them.So now I have 600 of outdated forks in my personal space which were created 3 years ago, when I needed to update a single line in some of the projects.Yes, they get in my way.No, there is no button to update them to align with the upstream.And no, there is no button in the UI to remove them in a bulk.

       @bookwar Not on GitLab, but GitHub has one. They added it a few years ago.

       @Conan_Kudo @bookwar You mean "Sync fork", right? But I miss "Delete forks that have been inactive for 1 year".

       @mirek @bookwar When a pull request is merged, there's a button for deleting forks too.

       @mirek in good old times github used to have a "delete everybody's fork" functionality disguised as an unit test
