code forking
● ►en loc. m. ►PROG Pratique relativement courante dans le monde du logiciel libre (mais pas forcément conseillée), consistant à reprendre le code source d'un programme et à poursuivre son développement indépendemment du code original. Cela peut-être une bonne chose si le développement du premier programme était arrêté depuis un moment, mais cela peut aussi être une sorte de coup d'état détestable... Tout dépend du contexte.
