Allowing only single fork per user/organization

[lafriks]

I think we should allow only single fork for every user/organization from single repository. At least I don't see point of having multiple forks for each user and PR anyway does not work with multiple forks for one user because of url limitation. It could be also source of bad practice that users are creating new forks just for PR instead of normal workflow with new branches.

GitHub also does allow only single fork, just as GitLab.

If that's seem ok, I could create PR for this.

@lafriks please do it.

Let's move this to v1.3 at first

Yes

resolved by #2193

Does this also make it impossible for an individual user to fork a project to multiple organizations?

I described a scenario where that is needed at gogs/gogs#1791 (comment), switched to Gitea because it implemented the feature as noted by @lunny at gogs/gogs#1791 (comment), and am currently using it.

Yes, I think @bard is right. @lafriks, user cannot fork him repo to an organization now.

Any chance of the fork-to-organization capability staying? I'm using this workflow, if future releases containing #2193 aren't allowing it I should start figuring out a migration path...

I think we will fix this at some time.
