Git Mirroring Action
This is being tested, and is subject to change
This simple action can be used to push git objects to a secondary repository.
There are other actions out there that do similar things, but none that quite meet our use-case.
Currently, this only supports pushing tags - trying to run this action
without providing a tag
input will generate an error.
As an example where this is being used with a tagging action where you want to ensure the tag is pushed to another remote:
name: Bump Tag
on:
push:
branches:
- master
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
fetch-depth: '0'
- name: Bump tag
id: bump_tag
uses: anothrNick/github-tag-action@master
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
WITH_V: true
- name: Push Tag to mirror
id: push_to_mirror
uses: mysociety/action-git-pusher@v1.0.0
with:
git_ssh_key: ${{ secrets.SOME_GIT_KEY }}
ssh_known_hosts: ${{ secrets.SOME_KNOWN_HOSTS }}
tag: ${{ steps.bump_tag.outputs.new_tag }}
remote: 'ssh://username@git.example.com/path/to/repository.git'
