Yes, the system doesn't currently detect when a repository becomes
un-forked because it's not a common use case.

At this point I think we should probably take this off-list. You can
either e-mail me directly (bturner at atlassian dot com), or, better
still, raise a ticket on support.atlassian.com. Either way I'll work
with you directly to un-fork the repository on disk and allow it to
clean itself up.
