Where was this said .. *anywhere*? Git has great support for branches; you can also merge and 
separate repositories nearly at will; creating new repositories is easy .. in the case of the secret 
service implementation there is no need to fork anything, especially not on some 3rd party 
infrastructure.

any of these efforts say that.
