No I didn't mean the "you can replace the fork's URL with the main repo one and make the commit seem part of the repo". That's a weird github oddity to keep in mind, but not the issue I meant. I meant when that PR including its merge commits gets merged. Then those commmits become proper members of the main repo.

This is also why Actions have convoluted security implications.
