Alternatively, if I could become the owner of the archived rootlesscontainers/PRoot repository I would unarchive it, update it, and maintain the PRoot fork there. That would be my preference, and then I would delete the apptainer/PRoot fork and close this pull request.

Thanks for the interest, SGTM

@cyphar WDYT?

Yeah, I can add you as a maintainer of the project.

Thanks, but it looks like that's not enough. I don't have the privileges to replace the main (that is, rootless-containers) branch nor to take it out of archive mode. Could you promote me to owner? The changes I need to make, including pulling in many commits from upstream, are for some reason not accepted as a pull request.

Weird. I also already unarchived it though?

(FWIW, I would prefer that you merge in your version to preserve the commit history.)

Oh right, so that was also why I didn't see a setting for that!

I thought it would be cleaner to start from the upstream commit history and add back in the changes needed for the fork. That way it would be just a few commits different from upstream. I went ahead and anyway also made a PR, rootless-containers/PRoot#9, which does a merge of upstream and applies a couple more fixes.
