Hello GitHub Team,

I’ve noticed that navigating back to a forked repository from the comparison view can be unintuitive, especially for new users or those not familiar with GitHub’s URL structure. Currently, one has to either click on the Browser's Back Button or manually edit the URL.

Suggestion: It would be beneficial to have a more prominent button or link that says “Back to Fork” or “Return to Repository” directly on the comparison page. This would make the process more straightforward and enhance the overall user accessibility on GitHub.
