forks of OSS usually acknowledge the original source
Credits different from acknowledgment or references.
- Credits is a professional practice or contractual obligation for attribution. Expected from those making use of the source
- Acknowledgments are more about gratitude for indirect support, mentorship, funding, emotional encouragement. Not required or expected from the creator
- References are similar to acknowledgments, more syntetic and coincise and used explicitly in public academic environment.
