Basic check for leaf

[BioQwer]

Hello @frost-nzcr4 .
For example, my local repo it's fork of more popular repo. My repo has't fork.
I want to get all forks of more popular repo that has changes but not merged in to popular repo.
Can you add this feature?

I find GitHub method to find forks with some changes, but them secure.
Method don't work where large forks count, but for little repo is good.

Did you try command to remove all merged forks git branch -r --merged | grep -v -e "\(origin\|upstream\|BioQwer\)/" | xargs -n 1 git branch -r -d described in #1?

The command is basically ok, until some user1 has made changes to upstream and other user2 forks from this one, then git thinks that they both made the changes and both forks will still exist, but only fork of user1's should.

To prevent this kind of duplicates:

• command to remove all merged forks should run on every branch automatically, or
• Commits API can be used

I think it's a task for git rather than github.

Before you say don't.
Thanks you it't cool clean up. I can add as default behavior after find all forks.
How i can clean up unmerged duplicates branches?

Try this script:

for BRANCH in $( git branch -r --no-color | cut -d" " -f3 ); do
    git checkout "$BRANCH"
    git branch -r --merged | grep -v -e "\(origin\|upstream\|BioQwer\)/" | xargs -n 1 git branch -r -d
done

all duplicates should be removed.

All ok.
