They do. So it seems it was forked once upon a time, but...

/opt/apps/atlassian/stash-data/shared/data/repositories $ grep '' */objects/info/alternates
158/objects/info/alternates:/data/opt_apps/atlassian/stash-data/shared/data/repositories/20/objects
45/objects/info/alternates:/data/opt_apps/atlassian/stash-data/shared/data/repositories/33/objects
93/objects/info/alternates:/data/opt_apps/atlassian/stash-data/shared/data/repositories/91/objects

...there is no trace of a fork still existing (the repo in question is 143).
