How to make a project available to fork?
I've created a public project, but whenever anyone goes to fork it, they're only seeing the project.json file, not the rest of the code. I've searched around and can't find any documentation on how to make a project available for users to fork, is there something ridiculously simple I'm missing?
Thanks

Joseph,
are you talking about a stream in the JazzHub SCM?
There was an issue that I ran into recently that looked similar.
You should be able to see the following page - if you go to edit code
There you should be able to connect to the repository, select a stream and create a repository workspace and load in in the web UI.
I would suggest to contact support if you only see the Project.json file, This would help them to track down the problem. I did and my similar problem went away and we are not sure what happened.

This problem has been driving me nuts, but I figured out how it is happening.
After a user clicks EDIT CODE on the project they plan to fork, the four icons (pencil, cylinder, magnifying glass, and command prompt window) appear on the left and the center screen is briefly blank. A box then appears in that blank area named <user> | <Project Name> with the Repsitory URL info. A little while later two boxes named Streams and Repository Workspaces appear.
The problem is that users click the pencil icon -> Show Current Folder. That is the wrong thing to do at this point! All a user will see here is the project.json file. I was not patient enough to see the three boxes appear. The correct step is to click the Load workspace icon under the Repository Workspaces box. Once that is complete, users can click pencil -> Show Current Folder.
If a user is in the weird state of only seeing the project.json file, they must click cylinder -> ALL Jazz SCM Repositories. Locate the project in question, and press the red X button to delete. Click OK in the dialog box that opens. Now start over and have patience.

these are the steps I'm following
I'm using firefox 27.0.1 and have tried it with all add ons disabled with the same results
- make changes in code
- click repositories link (second image link on left, as specified by Lauren)
- expand "Workspace Changes"
- Review changes and click "Deliver change set(s) to the stream" link on the "Workspace Changes" bar (it looks like a triangle with an arrow pointing up coming out of it)
