Resolution: Won't Fix
Description
Problem Definition
Forked repo can't be synced with main repo if we create a new branch in the main repo AFTER we do the fork.
The option of deleting forked repo and re-forking (even if it creates all the branches of our main repo to the team account) is not a viable solution
because:
- We again have this problem in the future if we added new release branch on our main repo. Then we have to keep deleting the forked repository from the account.
- We are using issue tracker on forked repo to manage issues and we can't afford to loose all issues and discussions around them in team accounts just because a new branch is added to the main repo.
Resolution Suggested
Improve the Fork Sync feature to allow forked repository to sync newly created branch on the main repository
