Description
1. Try to fork: https://www.dolthub.com/repositories/dolthub/classified-iris-measurements
2. You immediately get an error when landing on new forked repo since the default branch is set to main.

3. (this may be a separate issue) If you attempt to switch to a new branch, you get a weird type error:

Research direction
Reproduce the fork from the linked DoltHub repository and inspect the errors shown when the new repository opens and when switching branches. Treat the default-branch failure and the branch-switching type error as separate symptoms unless investigation shows they share a cause; done means the fork opens successfully and branch switching no longer produces the reported error.
