Fork: Creates a personal copy of a repository on your GitHub account. It's great for contributing to other projects and maintaining your own version.
Clone: Downloads a repository to your local machine. This allows you to work on the project locally, whether it's your repository or a public one.
Unique actions:
Only in git clone: Direct local management without needing to interact with GitHub or a remote repository.
Only in git fork: Forking repositories and interacting with them on GitHub, including pull requests, issues, and collaboration features.
