`fork-source-link-same-view`: The `forked from` link will be broken if the case doesn't match
See original GitHub issueIf you set your personal token and visit https://github.com/johntitor/rust-forge (note that the capitalization!), the forked from
link will be broken.
The link will be:
The link causes 404 instead of moving to parent repo (e.g.: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-forge/undefined/master). But if you don’t set the token or visit with the correct capitalization, the issue doesn’t happen.
Steps to reproduce
- Set your personal token.
- Find any fork repo that username has an upper case.
- Visit there ignoring capitalization.
Expected behavior
The link should be such as https://github.com/owner/repo
Actual behavior
It points to https://github.com/owner/repo/undefined/master
