qvl / ghbackup Goto Github PK

Hi

I get errors when running the command. Also, the Slack notification doesn't work as expected. It's just a message but it sends the message always and doesn't check if the script was executed (and as such the backup) well or not.

So nothing happend an I tried a manual execution with these errors (personal info removed):

error running command [git clone --mirror --no-checkout --progress [url] /srv/github-backup/twixlmedia/[repo].git] (git):  (exec: "git": executable file not found in $PATH)

Test with some user with too many repos.
Maybe limit to 10 in parallel.

Yes. NPM.

• Cron
• systemd + sleepto

When qvl/qvl.io#1 is done, the import path can be changed to go get qvl.io/github-backup.

Have to figure out how to do this first

Can generate for example usage info as described here: https://npf.io/2014/06/autogenerate-docs-with-this-one-dumb-trick/

Logging system (like journalctl) should handle these

Support private repos.
It's not as simple as it seems to fetch private repos from the Github API.
Also, when cloning and pulling we need to use the credentials for it.
The authentication is already working (2d476cf).

Currently, it does its thing and then finished.

Maybe add some kind of output what it's currently doing? Could be optional behind a flag.

Should hide this with a flag, but since I send myself a Slack notification whenever ghbackup runs, it would be nice to have some info like:
Repositories: X new, Y updated, Z unchanged. Total commits: K.

Wait for goreleaser/goreleaser#5

CLI should only care about providing a command line interface.
The library should also be callable from other Go code.
Could should be testable without testing CLI.

also display a warning

The simplest solution would be to always use the full path for each repository (qvl/ghbackup instead of only ghbackup).
When fetching only one account this could be confusing though.

-all flag to include non-owner repos

Hi

Apparently, ghbackup doesn't support LFS?

Thanks

The readme looks so empty

ghbackup is not simple to test, but should at least check the results in the file system after running the test.

Since names are unique, we don't need a flag.
If user not found, try if it's an org before giving up.

Shouldn't be too much work. All required tools are in the standard library.
Then it would be platform independent and could be executed via go run.

The Verbose output of the backup always returns this:

done: 0 new, 0 updated, 44 unchanged, 0 total objects

But that's not correct. What do you need from us to investigate this?

Assert that git is in path

Start with Ubuntu

On using ghbackup i get the following error, which i can reproduce on switching to the directory and issuing the command manually:

github/Strubbl/guayadeque.git[BARE:master]$ LANG=en git remote update --progress
error: unknown option `progress'
usage: git remote update [<options>] [<group> | <remote>]...

    -p, --prune           prune remotes after fetching
github/Strubbl/guayadeque.git[BARE:master]$ git version
git version 2.14.2

Is there any requirement i am missing? Wrong git version?

After #8 is done
