 If you want to [contribute to the repo](CONTRIBUTING.md), or like how we work and want to use it as a template for your project or package, just [fork and go](https://happygitwithr.com/fork-and-clone.html). As a number of people have pointed out that only works if you have an account on git.soton.ac.uk. If you have not, you can import the repo to (for example) your  [github.com](https://github.com/new/import) account and go from there. And presumably on gitlab.com too...
