If the currently selected filters are already the defaults, the button will be disabled and labeled as Defaults Saved. Optionally, to preserve the filter values you have selected as the default filters for any time you view a forks page, click Save Defaults.

To clear a filter, click Repository type, then click the applied filter again to remove it. Optionally, to filter the list to only display active, inactive, starred, or archived forks, click Repository type, then choose one or multiple options from the dropdown menu. For example, to see forks that have been updated within the last two years, choose '2 years' from the dropdown menu. Optionally, to filter the list to display forks updated within a specified time period, click Period, then choose a time period from the dropdown menu. If you want to preserve the filters you have selected, you can save your filter and sort selections as the default so that any forks page you view, in any repository, will be filtered the same way. To view the most useful or most active forks, you can sort the list of forks by most starred forks or most recently updated forks, or by the number of open issues or open pull requests. You can filter the list of forks to display active, inactive, starred, or archived forks, or to only display forks that have been updated within a specified time period (up to a period of five years). when the fork was last updated (that is, the last push to any branch).the number of direct forks (of the fork).how many times the fork has been starred.The forks page lists the forks of a repository. Under your repository name, click Insights. On, navigate to the main page of the repository.
