github-sync

The goal of this tool is to iterate over all of an Organization's repositories, a user's repositories or a list of individual repositories and keep them in sync locally. One can use the -t flag to specify a number of threads which will control how many threads are actively pulling repos locally. Currently we have opted to log errors at the end of a run rather than fail hard.

Usage

Usage: github-sync [options] -c CONFIG

Options:
    -c CONFIG           config file
    -d DIRECTORY        directory to sync git repos in
    -t THREADS          max number of threads used to sync repos (default 1)

Example Config

Note: a user and token are not required but github severely limits API calls without them. For generating a token see the creating a personal access token article from github.

See example.toml for all configuration options.

user = "papertigers"
token = "foobarbazfoobarbazfoobarbazfoobarbaz"

[owner.papertigers]
repos = [
    "notracking",
]

Example Run

❯ github-sync -d /tmp -c test.toml
Feb 25 14:19:19.193 INFO synced notracking into "/tmp/papertigers/notracking"
Feb 25 14:19:19.193 INFO finished processing 1 repo(s), encountered 0 error(s)
