git-repo-backup

Automated and reliable backups of your GitHub and GitLab repositories

Features

📦 Backups remote Git repositories hosted on GitLab or GitHub
⛵️ Automatically discovers all repositories for a given username
🕵️ Works with public and private repositories
🚦 Support for explicit deny- and allow-lists

Roadmap

🚀 Upload changes to a S3 compatible service

🪆 Add dummy service that allows a plain list of loose Git repositories

Why would I need this?

GitHub and GitLab don't run on altruism. Your account or individual repositories may be gone overnight without notice.
