Since git doesn’t have the notion of directories as entities, neither does GitHub.
This makes it counter-intuitive to add a sub-directory when creating a new file on-line in the GitHub web-UI or uploading file(s) there.
I wanted to do this as instead of taking the local route, it was easier to on-line add and edit [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – jpluimers/https-imgur.com-a-bmw-e61-remote-fix-sWdk0: Content from https://imgur.com/a/bmw-e61-remote-fix-sWdk0 for Wayback Machine archival.
The GitHub web-UI can indeed do this:

You can also do this from the git command-line, by adding an empty file in the directory first. By convention, usually a .gitkeep file is used for that though others use .gitignore files for it.

Fork of a repository that shows how to do this with normal Homebrew installs [Wayback/Archive] Install an old version with homebrew for macOS · GitHub has my notes to do a similar thing with Homebrew cask installs.

At the time of writing a lot of this might be more recent, but for quite some time codepoints.net had not been updated with code point information newer Unicode releases.
Basically it was stuck at Unicode version 8.0 with some 120k glyphs. At the time of writing Unicode version 15.0 is in beta and the difference between 15.0 and 8.0 is some 24k glyphs.
So I had a quick twitter chat with the author and jotted down the links in this blog post so I won’t forget them.
There I learned it was open source (I think it is the only Unicode codepoint site that is).

It is not a full fork and misses a few things (including the Gist description), but is the easiest way to clone a gist to a regular GitHub repository.
I needed it because somehow pushing to gists was denied without explanation or real GitHub feedback.
Another reason is that regular GitHub repositories show you way more information about the commits than Gists do.
Thanks [Wayback/Archive] Noitidart for asking and [Wayback/Archive] Bruno Bronosky for answering at [Wayback/Archive] Fork Gist to Repo on GitHub – Stack Overflow:
