I'm using GitHub API to search list of repositories forked from specific repository



For example I want to find list of all forked repositories (7,118) for Express.js using this query: https://api.github.com/search/repositories?q=repo:expressjs/express+fork:only



But this shows nothing in result:




"total_count": 0,
"incomplete_results": false,
"items": [

]



Is it possible to build such query?
