Well, in Git, technically, any clone is a fork. The difference between
a contributor's repository and a forker's is social, not technical (I
usually define "fork" as a branch where one of the projects has no
intention of merging the other's changes).

So, just clone and publish (push) your changes, and you're done.

Or, ask a more precise question, I may have missed something ;-).
