As is process:

Manually fork all student repos so I can offer suggestions via PR. Takes time to configure forks and remote branches.

  1. Visit the repo, and click "fork" to fork the repo
  2. Visit the forked repo and find the remote address.
  3. Associate remote address with local repo: git remote add my_fork master

To be process:

Automatically fork the repo and setup remote associations with local repo once downloaded.

you might want to look into the Github API to make forking an automated process. everything can be done inside of a bash script. there is also a hub wrapper for git cli but I personally think that using the API provides more information about the forking process.
