I was about to email about this. My limited experience with github says 
if you want to keep your fork up-to-date, it needs a pull-request from 
the original repo to your fork. Manual updating.

However, this also doesn't seem to work on forgejo, because you can't 
create PRs from mirrors either. My best guess would be to pull locally 
from the mirror, then push to the fork, locally on your computer.

Maybe Mark knows a way to do it automatically with forgejo, though...
