Problem:

When I search "Cloudflare MITM site:notabug.org", a fork appear above the original repository.

How to solve:

"Canonical link element" is important.

Please consider adding tag to the fork. 

Forked repository (origin: /XXXX/YYYY) should have:

<html>
<head>
  <link rel="canonical" href="https://notabug.org/XXXX/YYYY" />
</head>

Better would be to have each repository have a 'canonical' field in its settings, somewhere, that is by default blank or its parent(in case of fork) but which can be set.
