Delete forked repo from GitHub

By far the easiest way is to log in GitHub account:

  1. Click to your repository for example yourUsername/yourRepository for example mbaric/zpropertyz.
  2. Then in the main toolbar of GitHub click on Settings
  3. Scroll to the bottom of the page to the section called Danger Zone and you will find Delete this repository button
  4. When you click it another pop up will appear here you need to type in your Github username and the name of your repository in this format gitHubUsername/nameOfTheRepository and click on the button below which says: I understand the consequences, delete the repository
  5. If you are having trouble doing it, below are the images that can be checked…

Deleting it will do nothing to the original project. Editing it will only edit your fork on your repo page.


Just delete the forked repo from your GitHub account.

  • If I go to admin panel on GitHub there's a delete option. If I delete it as the option above, will it make any effect in the original one or not?

It wont make any changes in the original one; cos, its your repo now.
