title: Whats the best way to clone / duplicate a project into a new with git?
body: <p>I want to clone an existing git repo for a NEW project. After the cloning the code should be developed independent from the original. I want to host the NEW project on GITHUB too.</p>
  
  <p>My Workflow:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>git clone BASE_GITHUB_URL NEW_DIR  </li>
  <li>cd /NEW_DIR</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>But after that my 'clone' is connected with the base repo on Github. I want to push the changes into a NEW Github Repo instad</p>
  
  <p>I new its simular like 'fork', but it doesn't work with me as same the user on Github.</p>
