Hi all, I’m curious if there’s anyway to have a repo in github that is just a mirror of a repo in my gitea instance? Basically I want to do the opposite of mirroring a github repo. Is it possible or would I just have to manually push to both? Thank you ^^

@kiwi it is pretty easy to do it with Gitea. To mirror your Gitea repository, carry out the following steps:

- Register for the GitHub Developer Program, then go to the Settings page on GitHub and generate a personal access token with the repo scope.

- Create a repository on GitHub.

- Go to the settings of your Gitea repository and navigate to the Git Hooks section.

- Edit the post-receive hook and populate the text area with the script given below:

- Click on Update Hook and push to the Gitea repository.

- You will likely receive the following message on the terminal if the GitHub mirror was updated successfully:

Hope it works for you!
