Description

Before submitting
  • I searched existing issues and did not find a duplicate.
  • I included enough detail to reproduce or investigate the problem.
Area

apps/desktop

Steps to reproduce
  1. fork a repo and rename it something
  2. try to open both repos and the fork in t3code
Expected behavior

t3code will show the fork name different from the upstream repo

Actual behavior

t3code will call both the repo and its fork by the same name, making it hard to see if you are working on a fork or the actual repo

Research direction

Start in apps/desktop and reproduce the issue with an upstream repository and a renamed fork open together in t3code. Read the project grouping setting and the code that derives repository display names. Done means the fork and upstream repository are shown with distinct names while project grouping remains enabled.
