Forkers

A script that:

• finds and reports users who have forked an organizations repos
• compares the collaborators of the forks with the organization members to determine if anyone not in the organization has been added

Usage

In order to run the script you must have an environment variable set with a GitHub token that can access the organization you wish to audit. It can be set by running the following command before running the scripts.

export GITHUB_TOKEN=1234567890

You should now be able to run:

python fork_audit.py -o {organization_name}

In order to allow for the script to be run multiple times, back to back, there is a layer of caching to avoid hitting GitHub's ratelimiting. All cached files will be put into cache/{organization}. To clear the cache before running run the script with either --clearcache or -cc.
