I don't even have a 3d printer and I just git clone'd the entire repo to my media server.

In case someone comes across this and doesn't know, "forking" a repo by just clicking that button on github won't preserve your copy if the upstream repo gets taken down. If you're trying to preserve it, make sure you have a copy independent of github's control. Like a local backup
