 In this example you'll fork a public repository belonging to a user called tutorials.

  1. Log into Bitbucket.
  2. Locate the Search field in the menu bar.
  3. Search for the tutorials/tutorials.bitbucket.org repository.
  4. Click on the search result to go to the repository.
  5. Click Fork.

    The system displays the fork page. 
  6. If your account is a member of a Bitbucket team, the page contains a field Owner.  If you don't belong to a team, there is no Owner field; Continue to the next step.
  7. Change the Name for example, to myquotefork.
  8. Enter a Description that you think is appropriate.
  9. Uncheck Inherit repository user/group permissions.
    There are several options for forking. For now, just leave all the remaining options at their defaults.
  10. Press Fork repository.
