## Historique du projet et usages

fork-cleaner is a small Go command-line utility for cleaning old and inactive forks from a GitHub account. Its official README frames it as an interactive maintenance tool that enumerates forked repositories, checks upstream repository state, and lets the user pass a GitHub token with repository deletion permissions.

### Historique du projet

The GitHub repository was created in October 2016 and is maintained under the caarlos0 account. The project follows the author's usual Go CLI release style, with GitHub releases and binary/package installation paths advertised from the README.

### Historique d'adoption

Official installation instructions cover Homebrew, snap, apt, yum, distro packages, release binaries, and source builds, indicating that the tool was packaged for several CLI distribution channels rather than only as source code.

### Modes d'utilisation

Users create a GitHub personal access token with repository and delete-repository scopes, pass it with the --token flag, and let fork-cleaner list forked repositories oldest first. A --skip-upstream option exists for accounts with many forks or GitHub API rate-limit pressure.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

fork-cleaner is notable as a purpose-built repository-hygiene CLI: it packages an otherwise manual GitHub-account cleanup workflow into a small installable binary, with GoReleaser-style binary distribution and multiple package-manager entry points.

### Chronologie

- 2016: GitHub repository created.
- 2021: 2.0-series releases published.
- 2026: 2.4.0 release published.
