Forking Repository
...
The advantage of the forked repository is that contributions can be integrated without needing everybody to push to a single central repository. Developers push to their git repositories, and only the administrator of the original repository can merge the forked repositories. The administrator accepts developers' commits without giving them written access to the official repository.
