How can I fork a repository on Gerrit, so that the forked repository retains the change list history of the forked-from project?

I don't mean to fork from one Gerrit instance to another. Just within one Gerrit instance, rather than creating a new repository and submitting all contents of the other project in one big CL, actually forking/cloning that repository to retain a common CL history

Gerrit doesn't have the "concept" of "fork". As you have said, you can create a new repository and push all the commits/tags of the original one to it, or you can simply create a new branch in the original repository.
