Originally created by @mrsdizzie on GitHub (Jul 17, 2019).

When repo creation limit is set to 0 a user can still create forks. That is because it calls createRepository directly and not CreateRepository which has a check for limits:

acf6bd42c4/models/repo.go (L2398-L2400)

So

acf6bd42c4/models/repo.go (L1258-L1261)

vs

acf6bd42c4/models/repo.go (L1353-L1357)

Interface would also need to be updated to grey out fork or show warning on "New Repository Fork" dialogue

I guess this is intentional behavior per comment on #4586 so will close this one
