You published this under an open source license that allows anyone to fork and modify it as they see fit, as long as they include the license with their fork[0]. If they did so, then all you can (and should) do is stop complaining about other people doing what you gave them explicit permission to do. The entire point of open source is that the code you write doesn't belong to you, it belongs equally to anyone who wants it. [0]https://github.com/guarinogabriel/Mac-CLI/blob/master/LICENS...

Ask HN: Plagiarism on GitHub – What to do?

Hi everyone, I've been working on a command line tool for more than 6 months. A member on Github changed the name of the project, reduced the number of features by removing 3rd-party libraries (all of them are optional in my CLI), and took the entire idea including modularity, plugins and even the mac logo () on the title of the project. He should have created Pull Requests to contribute to the project instead of modifying the original project and posting it as a separate project in 4 days (vs 6 months that it took to me to organize and create all that code). 100% of the changes he made could have been made through Pull Requests. If someone wants to take a look and contribute to the original project, this is the URL: https://github.com/guarinogabriel/Mac-CLI What would you do if this happens with your project? Please let me know your tho
