Create a script for archiving source repositories

+# Replication
+
+The script `create-forks-on-github.sh` can be used to create forks of all the
+repositories in the `../../../DiffDetectiveMining/` folder. It marks them as a
+fork and replicates the local state in this fork. The indended use case is to
+provide immutable copies of all source data to make all results of this research
+reproducible.
+
+## Usage
+First run:
+```bash
+./create-forks-on-github.sh
+```
+
+It will ask some verification questions and prints all commands that it will
+perform. If the source repositories are not located in
+`../../../DiffDetectiveMining/` (relative to this file) or
+`../DiffDetectiveMining` (relative to the root directory of this repository) the
+comment character of the variable `PATH_TO_REPOSITORIES` in the second paragraph
+can be removed and the actual path can be set.
+
+To execute the printed commands uncomment the last line of the second paragraph
+which disables `DRY_RUN`.
+
+## Login
+You can either login beforehand with `gh auth login` or just run the script
+which will run this command for you. This script will *not* log you out once
+it's finished because you may want to run additional commands (or you where
+previously logged in).
+
+## Additional notes
+This script should be idempotent as `gh` detects an already forked project and
+the performed force push should not change anything (unless the remote
+repository was changed).
+
+## Requirements
+This script requires a standard UNIX environment with at least the following
+additional tools:
+- `bash`, the GNU POSIX shell
+- `gh`, the github command line interface
+- GNU `find`, the POSIX `find` with some additional options (mainly `-print0`,
+  but this was not tested with other `find` implementations)
+
+This script was tested under GNU+Linux.
