I have two repositories hosted on bitbucket server where one of them should have been created as a fork of the other, rather than an independent repository (i.e., they share common branches/commits as can be seen in git when the working directory contains the two corresponding remotes). Unfortunately, when I push changes to the "downstream" repository, I can't create pull requests into the "upstream" repository because it wasn't created as a fork (the upstream repo doesn't appear in the drop down box of destination repositories). Is it possible to assign the "downstream" as a fork of the "upstream" after it's been created? I know I can erase the "downstream" and create a new one as a fork (repopulating the git data by cloning the original downstream before erasing it), but my understanding is that would lose all the existing bitbucket meta data like pull requests.
Thanks.
The short answer is no, you cannot convert a repository to be a fork instead.
And your understanding is correct, if you remove the repository you will loose any Bitbucket data associated with it.
