Originally created by @lukewatts on GitHub (Jun 18, 2018).

There's two issues here it seems:

  1. If I fork a repo (call it myorganisztion/app) and I now have lukewatts/app then I cannot create a second fork of myorganisation/app (let's say I want lukewatts/app-2)

  2. If I fork repo myorganization/app to lukewatts/app I cannot then fork lukewatts/app to lukewatts/app2. I get a "UID cannot be empty" error message (Image attached)

  1. This is not allowed on github either.
  2. This maybe a bug.

Sorry, I think this is expected as github does.
