"Phabricator" and "Phacility" are trademarked names, and the logo is copyrighted. To start an initial fork we need update the source code and remove references which identify the product as Phabricator in order to abide by trademark/copyright laws and expectations. This particularly needs to be done so that changes to the product are clearly reflected as being work done by Phorge community/organization and not Phabricator/Phacility.
EvanP has communicated that he would be willing to accept an upstream patch that makes the branding of the site configurable/convenient. The primary diffs which pull out mentions of "Phabricator" and "Phacility" should be done in a means that it would be accepted upstream.
The ideal strategy for this looks roughly like:
1. Extract out the words "Phabricator" and "Phacility" from user-visible strings, in both rP and rARC , to instead pull the project name and organization from a single static method (one method in rP which pulls the hard-coded value defined in rARC).
2. Leave the hard-coded values as "Phabricator" and "Phacility"
3. Submit the change upstream to Phabricator
4. Everything goes perfectly and the changes are adopted
5. Pull in the accepted changes from upstream
6. Replace the project name, organization name, and the logo/favicon with Phorge-branded assets
7. Complete.

- [ ] `src/applications/aphlict/management/PhabricatorAphlictManagementWorkflow.php` has several hard-coded paths assuming the project is checked out under the directory name of `phabricator`, which will need changed to checking `phorge` first and then `phabricator` if it doesn't exist, otherwise installing Aphlict will fail to locate the default configuration file for anyone starting from a fresh install vs. updating their existing checkout.
