We were using the two pretty interchangeably. "Project" should only be used to refer to the repository payload. "Repository" should be used when referring to the resource that is fetched, synced, cloned, checked out etc.

If we have fetched a project, then we do not have a fork of the
repository in the storage, i.e. there is no ref hierarchy for our
NID. This is demonstrated below where our NID is
z6Mkt67GdsW7715MEfRuP4pSZxJRJh6kj6Y48WRqVv4N1tRk:
$ rad inspect rad:z42hL2jL4XNk6K8oHQaSWfMgCL7ji --refs
z6MknSLrJoTcukLrE435hVNQT4JUhbvWLX4kUzqkEStBU8Vi
└── refs
├── cobs
│ └── xyz.radicle.id
│ └── [...]
├── heads
│ └── master
└── rad
├── id
└── sigrefs
To remedy this, we can use the rad fork command for the project we
wish to fork:
$ rad fork rad:z42hL2jL4XNk6K8oHQaSWfMgCL7ji
✓ Forked repository rad:z42hL2jL4XNk6K8oHQaSWfMgCL7ji for z6Mkt67GdsW7715MEfRuP4pSZxJRJh6kj6Y48WRqVv4N1tRk
Now, if we rad inspect the project's refs again we will see that we
have a copy of the main set of refs:
$ rad inspect rad:z42hL2jL4XNk6K8oHQaSWfMgCL7ji --refs
z6MknSLrJoTcukLrE435hVNQT4JUhbvWLX4kUzqkEStBU8Vi
└── refs
├── cobs
│ └── xyz.radicle.id
│ └── [...]
├── heads
│ └── master
└── rad
├── id
└── sigrefs
z6Mkt67GdsW7715MEfRuP4pSZxJRJh6kj6Y48WRqVv4N1tRk
└── refs
├── heads
│ └── master
└── rad
└── sigrefs
We are now able to setup a remote in our own working copy of the project and push to our own fork.
